Pornography

A few decades ago, access to pornography was tough. They were not accessible to the common man of this world. The pornographic books were called yellow books and the videos were called blue films. Very few theaters, one or two, in cities used to screen certain movies. Common men normally avoid such theatres those days. Even though those films were soft porn movies, many men dared to go to those theatres. 

Gone are those days.

With low-cost internet facilities with smartphones, many men and women are addicted to watching porn movies in their phones. The worst part of this culture is that they watch in public places. They carry all the time in their phones. Men and women. the rich and poor.  Students. girls and boys.

Religious and atheist. 

Control yourselves and be careful! The devil is your enemy, and he goes around like a roaring lion looking for someone to attack and eat. (1 Peter 5: 8 Easy to read English version)

Am I like Joseph?

Potiphar's wife came and grabbed him by his cloak, demanding, “Come on, sleep with me!” Joseph tore himself away, but he left his cloak ..... and he had fled. (Genesis chapter 39)

Scriptures narrate that Joseph was a very handsome and well-built young man. Joseph was orphan, abandoned by his family. He was a slave. Master’s wife repeatedly forced him to sleep with her. 

My Lord Jesus Christ,

Please give me the courage to say no to sin. Give me the strength to abstain from sin. May all the attempts of Satan fail in my life. Give me the strength of Joseph so that I can also be a trustworthy servant of you in my life, on this earth. Forgive me for all my sins. And, when you come back gloriously as a King, take me along with you and give me a small place in Father’s kingdom. In Jesus name. Amen.
