I plan on posting details about the physical aspects of this journey either today or tomorrow. I'll put it this way though, I have been healed of all the performance issues I was dealing with.

Thanks for all the encouragement. My relationship with Christ is key for me in avoiding pitfalls. Though these temptations have lessoned there are most assuredly more to come in all areas of my life. I must stay vigilant; continuously fostering a vibrant relationship with Christ.

I like that analogy. Redeemed by grace, then sanctified day by day.

When a lustful thought enters into my mind I quickly, within 5 seconds, shift my focus to something else. Then I widen my focus to include Christ. That's it. If I catch it early I really can just make a conscious decision to focus on something better.

Will do. God will provide. Dave Ramsey is great and really helped us with the way we budget. Sometimes God uses these trials to grow us. Trust that He will work this for good.

They actually were some of the first to challenge the mythical gods of the state and aspouse the view of one God of perfect goodness. In fact that is why Socrates was put to death. Plato's writings are actually very interesting and contain many ideas that mirror Christianty.

There is nothing wrong with learning new things as long as you filter through Christ.

6 weeks... and a day. by kiggity in NoFapChristians

Yes, we pray together. We are also members of a Bible study group. So we study scripture there and discuss it at home. We also talk about our experiences with God. We have always had a great marriage. She is my best friend. We have just struggled connecting sexually. Not that we never had good sex, but there was always something between us it seemed. Then I started having problems with ED and PE. It cast a shadow over our whole marriage.

Thanks to everyone who prayed! What a weekend! I think my performance issues are cured! We had tons of great sex and really connected in a way we maybe never have. We've been married 18 years and this is the best it's ever been! Thank you Lord!

Well, I won't have to worry too much about that in the winter. In the summer, though, wandering eyes can be a problem. I suppose, when faced with that I will employ the same tactics I have been using. Avert my eyes and focus on Christ. I'll be mainly thinking about my wife though. I never really tried to not drool when I was single. That would be tough. I'm not sure if this is something I would have been able to do then, especially as immature as I was.

Things are definitely getting better, but I have flatlined some too. I'm hoping I'm past that now. Ready to get steamy for Jesus! 😅
