Hey, man I know the struggle that you are in!! It is a daily battle against the enemy(the world ,the flesh and the devil). What can make me fall? Practically anything thats what! Just walking out the front door, with the way that woman can dress, is all it really takes. My own imagination! This is a sex saturated culture that we live in with a lure to sexual pleasure around every corner. Their seems to be know way to truley remove myself from the temptatin for sexual pleasure.I can through out the T.V., the computer and anything else in my house that is a source of temptation!! Then I have to leave the house and there it is !! Billboards, magazine racks at the check out in the grocery stores. Girls walking around half naked. Mans it's tough!! What the Lord has been getting accross to me is the need to win the battle in the mind!! Rejecting the first sinful thought that comes to mind. Not allowing myself to dwell on any lustful thought. This is not easy, it takes much work as I am finding out.. Romans 12:2 "let God tramsform you into a new person by changing the way you think" are thoughts is where the battle is won or lost. So lets pray for each other!! I am in this same battle with you!! If and when we fall, and were disappointed with ourselves and feel shame. Lets stand up and praise God anyway. He always worthy regardless how I feel about myself!!! If you don't have a good filter on your computer http://www1.k9webprotection.com/ go here it is free and very good filter. Just have spouse friend or parent set password.
