Bible Question: is it okay to be anxious to have sex when you're only 13 |
Bible Answer: No, my young friend I would say not, (the sex is not necessarily bad, but the anxiety may be)For to have too much anxiety in our lives is showing God that we do not trust His will for our lives, and we make ourselves out to be unfit for His service. However it is human nature and perfectly natural to have these feelings. And since God created us, He knows exactly what we are made of and how we feel about everything. So, sexuality is a natural, God-given desire. God, in His infinite wisdom, gave us the gift of sex and designed it to be a wholesome aspect of a marriage relationship as a means to populate the earth. So God should always be our guide in the use of this unique and wonderful gift. We all are aware that sexual temptations are hard to ignore and difficult to overcome, since they are part of the normal desires of our flesh.Remember, these feelings were given to us by God. Sex was created by God to populate the earth and He made it a pleasurable way to express the love between a husband and wife. But! sex must be limited to the marriage relationship to avoid hurting ourself, our relationship with others, and most important, our relationship with God. Real lasting happiness can only come when we decide to trust in God completely and develop patience as we wait for His plan to unfold in our lives. The real danger here would be to doubt that God knows us, loves us, and wants what is best for us. Then, we may resent His plan and timing, and carelessly pursue sexual activity without His blessing. Remain Strong, and know that He is Lord. Peace, tim |
