Thank you posting. My wife recently was led by the spirit to look into my social media and dms. She found inappropriate things, likes and flirtatious comments. She then said to me, you tell yourself that you have never cheated but in God’s eyes you have committed adultery!” This broke me to the core. I have since got rid of that social media and I am taking steps to clean up everything. Pray for our marriage and for me to continue in my repentance. Thank you 🙏🏽 and to God be the glory.

@Jerik G I know you asked someone else; but if you don't mind I would like to share. There were several verses and concepts that I had to link together. The enemy uses inaccurate preconceived notions (little thoughts that are deceptions) those thoughts become the breeding ground for believing horrible lies about ourselves and others. The Bible Project video on 1 Corinthians. The examination of the issue, the proper view of the role of believers gathering and the recap at the end of the video. Proverbs 9. I discovered v4 and v16 are the same words. One an invitation to spend my time with wisdom; the other, an invitation to spend my time with folly. I can't be in both places at the same time. Wisdom makes my heart sorrow shrink. Folly makes my heart sorrow grow. Ecclesiastes 11:10... I am told to remove sorrow from my heart and not to intentionally bring evil to me through my 5 senses. Then Psalm 19:8-13..

I think the greatest conviction from this video are points 4 and 5. I was introduced to porn and I mean the worst of it by relatives and close friends at around 7 years old, and it became an addiction early on. I've made a lot of progress since but it's been a battle. And while I do my best to provide for our household, spiritually i'm inconsistent and it pains me to see the effects of that on my wife and our marriage. If you're reading this, please pray for me.

Great message Allen. After my divorce I was constantly flirting with women at work, and pretty much everywhere to help build up my confidence within. It got so bad, I was meeting ungodly women who didn't even agree with my Holy Faith in God. I participated in this ridiculous behavior for almost two years. I even began to become sexually active with these women to please myself. Only thing is that I was still lonely and upset at my x-wife.. Eventually I felt the Holy Spirit speak to me and show me that I would never have peace doing these things.. I remember watching documentaries for atleast 3 days about people's life stories about how there former partners passed on HIV and other STD's to them .From there, I remember getting on my knees with a very long and emotional prayer asking him for forgiveness for my horrible behavior that I carried on for close to two years. I also realized that by surrounding myself with some of my old friends and co-workers who were ungodly; well that wasn't fruit full either. I give God All the Glory because he delivered me from this unfruitful behavior.🙏👍..

My husband cannot wear any rings or even a wristwatch to work because of the type of equipment at his job. I stopped wearing my wedding ring for a long time until recently when a man tried to talk to me & when I told him I was married, he got annoyed that I wasn’t wearing a wedding ring. So I went on Amazon & ordered a fake diamond wedding band set for $40. It actually looks realist &!very nice. I wear that now so men won’t bother me.

Eehh I get it but not wearing it a wedding band around other women is no big deal. Women won’t care either way.
@essiej52293 жыл бұрын
I've seen men and women who do more manual jobs wear those silicone wedding rings. They are flexible and kind of popular. It seems like a good option if they can't wear metal jewelry. It is true that some people will try to flirt with you even if you're wearing a ring but stop them in their tracks. It's better to be respectfully blunt with them from the very beginning.

Just let people know you are happily married, respect and behave yourself. Our ancestors wore no marriage bands and yet they were faithful. Whoever wants to cheat will cheat even if they wear wedding rings as huge as alloy wheels.

I would also add, if you are a man and you are marriage minded, if you meet a woman and later determine she is not what you are looking for in a wife, tell her and let her go. Don't be a thief of her time and make her a miss right now until you find someone else. The longer you mislead her just to have someone for now, the longer you are keeping her from having the person that is for her.

Lust is one of the devil's most powerful weapon. Lust is embedded in the flesh at at young age it's very hard to over come. Even as we are. If you live a life of sleeping around, When you marry ( for men and women) the flesh is still weak and it will be hard to change the flesh. 4 in 5 marriages end in divorce because of it. God is the only way out of the flesh culture.

Mr. Parr, as for the husband or men lacking the work around the house, that doesn't apply to me. I do the work around the house, cooking, cleaning, laundry, working on the car, sweeping, mopping, dusting, washing dishes (we share making the bed up). If anything, I get tired of the constant "you should know what I'm thinking mind games". My wife is verbal when need be, but a lot of it is confusing because it's a case by case scenario that most/some of the time doesn't require me as a male interaction to do something. I personally do help when I can, but there are times where I truly believe I am not appreciated for it. So I just keep to myself and study my Bible and ask God to direct my thoughts.
