The world would have a us believe there are only two kinds of diets when it comes to our sexuality. The world offers the "Fast-food Diet" where you can get as much sex as you want, when you want, where you want and how you want it, with whoever you want.
Our second option is the "Starvation Diet". The world will tell you that this is what the 'religious' people teach. This requires that everyone have an attitude that sex is "bad", our bodies are "bad" and.... "Don't look! Don't look! Must... Not... Sin...".
Both of these options will never fulfill us. The first is overindulging and leaves us believing that we cannot control ourselves. The second rejects the beautiful bodies we are given and tries to smother our God-given sexual desires.
So what do we do??
God offers each and every one of us The Banquet. He and He alone can fulfilled our desires when we bring them to him. God doesn't want us to be eating fast-food all the time, it will make us unhealthy and always craving more. He doesn't want us to starve ourselves either; it too, will make us unhealthy and will deaden our desires.
God gave us our sexual desires! They are GOOD! Our bodies are GOOD! We are inherently GOOD people.
How can we partake in this Banquet? How do we find it?
By accepting God's free and awesome gift of GRACE. We can't earn it. It's FREE. Seek out the Lord today, He wants you to eat from His table and be fulfilled. Only He can fill the emptiness you feel.
