How to Deal with the Guilt of Sexual Failure for the Glory of Christ and His Global Cause

January 8, 2007 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Let me challenge you to go read this blog by John Piper: http://blog.worship.com/worship/2007/01/how_to_deal_wit.html

This is just one quote to get you interested:

The Main Tragedy

The great tragedy is not mainly masturbation or fornication or acting like a peeping Tom (or curious Cathy) on the internet. The tragedy is that Satan uses the guilt of these failures to strip you of every radical dream you ever had, or might have, and in its place give you a happy, safe, secure, American life of superficial pleasures until you die in your lakeside rocking chair, wrinkled and useless, leaving a big fat inheritance to your middle-aged children to confirm them in their worldliness. That’s the main tragedy.

The Point: Your Life

What’s the point of all that? The point is not this is what you do with your loose change. The point is: This is what you do with your life. You don’t want always be sitting high in your SUV dropping nickels into other people’s dreams. Satan wants that for you. But you don’t! You want to dream your own dream for the glory of Christ. Why am I on this planet? What has God put me here for?
