Confessions of a Horny Virgin: What really Counts
Posted by Tomi O on Friday, December 20, 2013 with 21 comments
Hello Everyone,
Welcome once again, and If you've not been following the series click here for the previous episodes and yes *sniff* *sniff* Its the last episode *pouts* I had fun. But lets proceed shall we? :)
In the past 2 weeks you've come here to read me relay a part my story. You either stopped by because of the catchy Title or to feed your curiosity about where I am taking this to. For whatever reason you opened the link, I really hope you enjoyed reading it and it blessed your life in one way or another.
I said in the last post how I was on the board of Directors of How-much-can-I-get-away-with-and-still-be-saved.
I grew up with the notion that Virginity meant not getting pregnant before I married, I guess because of the emphasis on "If you get pregnant, You will drop out", so doing everything BUT penetrate was totally fine for me.
I always knew what I did wasn't right but I would sooth my conscience with "I sha didn't have sex"
In my moment of curiosity I watched some porn and at some point touched my self, Which was inevitable with the constant junk I feed my eyes and ears. I was trapped, the Devil lied to me that I really shouldn't talk about it, I will be judged and no one really wants to know the filth you engage in behind closed doors. I believed and kept quiet.
Its a lie, You are not alone AND you can be free.
Alot of people when talking about Virginity keep giving the Impression that being a Virgin means not having sex before marriage and alot of people grow up with that at the back of their minds, little emphasis is laid on Purity.
I discovered (While studying the word) that my body is the temple of the Lord, Why would I want to give a piece of Gods sacred place to anyone and everyone that comes my way?
Now, I believe that the focus should be purity and not just "Be a virgin", Virginity is a product of purity. It is not going to be a walk in the park.
Everyday is a battle between you and your flesh and we are more than conquerors through him that Loves us.
Oh. Some days you will fall, but like me, I encourage you to be the one that falls 6 times and rises up 7 times. The Grace of God is not an avenue to bask in sin, but a knowledge of him who is faithful and Just to forgive and doesn't record our sins against us.
I re-iterated and decided to stay pure. Have I fallen short since then? Yes, Did I stand up? Yes. Does God look at me, dust me up and draw me back into his embrace EVERYTIME? Yes.
Is it ever late? No
Will he do the same for you? Absolutely.
Want him to do it for you? Say this prayer with me:
Heavenly father, I acknowledge that I have done wrong and misused my body out of Ignorance, have mercy on me. I present my body to you as a living sacrifice and I ask that you help me keep it pure as you intended in the beginning. Thank you for your ever present help. In Jesus name. Amen
Yaay!! Congratulations and yes, Lets continue in the purity Journey shall we?
:) Thank you all for Having me here and for the encouraging comments. I had maximum fun!
Adriana.

Thank yooou!!!

Hmm...wt a splendid nd life changin story..kip it up..THE LORD IS YOUR STRENGHT
ReplyDeleteAmen.
DeleteThanks.
The one who can discipline his flesh and has control over his desires can overcome temptation. The world has gone against the words of its Maker and that is why sexual information is on every path you turn. Our social media also serves as a conveying means giving people access to destructive information. Although, before the flesh can enable an action, the mind must be willing. Therefore, great work must be done to prevent dirt from infiltrating the mind.
ReplyDeleteGod is ever mighty and bigger than us all. He knows that we would fall but He wants us to call on Him everytime we fall so He can strengthen us and help us back to our feet. We must always acknowledge His presence. If we can remind ourselves that we are in His presence every minute, it'll help us a lot in combatting temptation.
Yes oh..Nothing like acknowledging his presence every step of the way.
DeleteThank you for taking time out Tosin :D
*picks up phone* Mo speaking.
ReplyDeleteTo those that have ears, let them hear what the spirit of the Lord is saying.
Yes oh.
DeleteOshey dear
Interesting series..
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice when we put the truth out there… thanks for the post, it's still an area of struggle though. But i definitely will never give up. No Christian should
ReplyDeleteExactly, We Shouldn't. And we will not give up.
DeleteThanks for stopping by
What really counts isn't falling, but picking yourself up and staying pure! Good one! :)
ReplyDeleteYep Yep! Thanks Tunde
DeleteI couldn't read the previous series because I have been wrapped up with too much work and it has been getting the better part of me. Anyway, this concluding post actually speaks my mind, just exactly as I commented on the introductory post. Well done girl, you really did a great job sharing this! (hugs) http://frediliadtruthuncensored.com/
ReplyDeleteFor someone who sometimes uses 'catchy' blog titles, I must confess that each time I saw this particular title of yours, my mind just blocked it for some reason. It's odd because I know you so should have known better, right?
ReplyDeleteYou have nailed it. It's not just about remaining a virgin. It's about remaining pure/holy just like your PapaGod. It's about understanding how special your body is to God and how much it hurts him when you do anything (sexual, dietary, physical, etc) that devalues your body in and out. Personally, where I still single, apart from the above the one thing that would scare the pants off me about having sex before marriage is the sexual/soul ties that comes out of it all. Think about it, if you are not careful when you get married, your spouse will be getting a bonanza: You + all the other people you have joined yourself too before him/her! And in ways soap and sponge cannot wash off......
When I was single, I did not know any of this and I paid the price dearly early in my marriage. It takes a lot to rid your relationship of all that 'stuff' from other people and while nothing stands in the way of the blood of Christ, why on earth will you open your eyes and jump into that?
Bottom line. 'Fear' God as much as you say you love him.
Nice on Arike. Nice one.
Lol @ The first Paragraph *Smiles*
DeleteThank you so much for double nailing it and making your heart known, i'm so glad that you can say this from where you stand as you've gone before us and know what it all entails.

Hmmm, I love the part where you said Virginity is about purity! You are absolutely right.
