The Value Of SexSample

One man, one woman, for life. That’s the way God designed it. 

If you believe that, it can change the way you look at sex. So can believing this: God loves you and values you. He has a special purpose for your life.

Knowing how God feels about you can inspire you to save your sexual purity for your wedding day. That will become your way of telling your husband or wife: “I love you so much that I loved you even before I met you – by saving myself for you. We will have a life-long adventure of sexual closeness that won’t be ruined by the memories of other sexual partners.”

Do you want that? Or are the Four Big Buts keeping you from that?

1. But I will use protection. While using protection could protect your health (although not always effective in stopping STDs), it can never project your heart.

2. But we won’t go all the way. Some people think that as long as they stick to foreplay, they’ll be fine. But they won’t. Plus, foreplay is like a fire. It easily gets out of control.

3. But we love each other. The average person will have several romantic relationships before they get married. Real, lasting love is more than a strong feeling. It’s a life-long commitment. 

4. But waiting for sex is pointless. No, it’s not! Anyone can sleep around, but it takes a man or woman of character and integrity to wait. You don’t need someone to be someone. Waiting for sex is worth it when you marry the man or woman of your dreams. 

PRAYER: Thank You, God, for loving me. Inspire me to save myself for marriage (or give me strength to become a secondary virgin – choosing to stop having sex before marriage).
