Letter to myself:
Dear Secret,
It’s about time you worked on this. You have willingly deceived me that it was under control from time to time. But time and time again you have shown your insecurities, your loneliness and inability to rid yourself of this sin. You have confessed again and again to God. You have promised yourself, you have begged God for the strength to avoid this sin, but have not undertaken the serious work to bounce your eyes and your thoughts before the act of masturbation ever takes place. You have not prepared yourself for times you are alone. You have not taken seriously the effects of these images on your marriage as a husband, as a father, as a man a part of your community and in your professional career. You have watched these XXX church videos since college. You’ve found the work of craig Gross inspirational. You’ve even felt compelled to enter a line of ministry like what he has started with XXX church. You know the strength of the temptation. You know what sort of difficulty so many young men are facing. You feel for them. We can do this!
Sincerely,
“wants to be clean”
Letter from my sex addict:
Dear “wanting to get clean”,
I know you think you want to be clean. But you will be honest when you say that you have tried again and again to get clean. You have had stretches where you have been what you call healthy. You have abstained, you’ve had small victories, but in your loneliest moments you know you have not been able to withstand the temptation of the internet….of ladies that have a sexual look in their eye. Of course you realize that these girls don’t actually want YOU but with my help you can trick yourself into thinking that in some delusional state you actually believe these girls want and like and want to have sex with you! Best of luck with this 30 Day thing with the XXX church.
Sincerely,
Secret
