Your Sister in Christ: Day 9✝️

Day 52

Good evening everyone! So kinda good news we have a house tour scheduled for tomorrow afternoon for a pretty decent looking house. Only sorta issue is that it’s for sale. My mom was thinking about asking for a rent-to-own agreement, but it’s not a guarantee that we’ll have that option. That was a question we were gonna ask on the tour :) My urges has been extremely strong lately. Especially after just scrolling on twitter and that’s all I see is what I used to watch. Looking back on it I feel really disgusting and realized something hard that I feel like I need to share with everyone.. Every time you watch porn, you are supporting an industry that profits from the exploitation, abuse, and degradation of human beings made in the image of God. Behind the scenes of those videos, there are stories of addiction, coercion, trafficking, and broken lives. Even when it appears consensual the reality is often filled with manipulation, despair, and destroyed souls. Imagine standing before God, trying to explain why you chose temporary, empty images over His love, over the purpose He has for your life, and over real, meaningful relationships. Is it worth the cost of your soul, your peace, and your relationship with God? To my siblings in Christ Michael (both of you) Robert, Logan, Ian, Kathryn: continue to stay strong and push forward! I believe that you can beat this and so does God :)

I'm glad your continuing to fight the good fight. I believe you will beat this addiction and find a home soon. You are strong and God has always there for you even in the hard times. I'll continue to pray for you and your family.

Hey Mikayla, glad to hear you guys got some irons in the fire. Praying it all works out for you and your mom. Hopefully, the sellers are fair and receptive to a rent-to-own deal. Stay strong sis. “Weeping may endure for a night, but Joy comes in the morning!” Psalm 30:5. This too shall pass and the Lord will bring you out of it. Just stay strong. I’ll be praying for you. 🙏🏼

@Logan yeah I don’t know how I even felt something from the things I watched. Very dehumanizing and degrading..and to think I literally used to binge it multiple times a day just because I was bored or high. I’m happy I’m turning into a better person :)

@Trey thank you that means a lot! 🥹 honestly when I realized how disgusting it was the more I wanted to stay away from it

First of all, I'm happy you guys are touring a house and I pray you can find a home soon! Second, what you said is 100% true. Last year in college, I learned so much about the industry, and it is awful. It is literally exploitation. It messes up God's design for sex and makes you lust. Today was hard for me, but I stayed strong, and I'm so glad I did. The porn industry is so evil and exploitative. I would watch Theo Von's interview with Laila Mickelwait. It's all about how bad the industry is.- Logan
