I Could Battle an Addiction to Pornography
I could battle an addiction to pornography…
There I said it…
I hate to admit it, but I must…
Now, let me explain…
I’m not an addict…
I’m not practicing an addiction…
I never really have…
I have just learned enough “by experience” to know it wouldn’t take much…
I have a wandering eye problem…
I don’t know many honest men who don’t…
Pornography grips a man’s mind and heart like nothing else…
I also have sat with dozens of men whose life destruction started with a pornography addiction…
I also know that addiction usually starts as temptation…
You don’t have to be practicing an addiction to be tempted towards an addiction…
My dad was an alcoholic…
The last 15 years or so of his life he wasn’t a practicing alcoholic…
I saw him avoid situations which could tempt him to give into his addiction…
He knew where he was vulnerable…
Do you?
It I wasn’t careful with my time; if I didn’t have people monitoring my internet usage, I could soon be held captive by images that would haunt me long after I left a site or page…
The fact is…if I chose to glance it would soon become a gaze…
I would soon be a statistic…
Again, just being honest…
I have to discipline myself not to sin in this way…
Who is bold enough to be honest with me?
What accountability measures do you have in place to keep you from battling an addiction to pornography?
