God Gave Us Our Sexuality...

God Gave Us Our Sexuality…

 

God gave us our sexuality and told us how to use it.

But many have ignored him, and have “abused it.”

 

Through his word, he’s given us his “set of rules.”

So many have refused it, and have become “fools.”

 

The fool has purposed in his heart God does not exist.

Yet his beautiful handiwork is all around their midst.

 

Many have chosen to turn his truth into a lie.

And often, they burn in lust till the day they die.

 

Many have offered their bodies for ungodly things.

Not caring the consequences this really brings!

 

Many are involved with perversion of various kinds.

Having a warped sense of morality in very confused minds

 

So many aren’t happy with the way they're created.

Their own sexual identity is often debated.

 

You were wonderfully designed and beautifully made.

Please don’t end up as sin’s “sexual slave!”

 

God made you special…  And has a perfect will!

Your every need…  His love can fulfill!

 

Don’t settle for what may be “your innocence lost”

Think about the work Christ did on the cross!

 

God can help you to resist the many

 “sexual temptations.”

And can bring to your life his

 peace and true satisfaction.

 

You don’t have to live like you did before!

God can restore your life and do so much MORE1

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
