The Best Condom!

Me at two years old..

Two year old Kimberly: *Walks up to stove and proceeds to touch the hot stove*

Parents: "NOOO! Kimberly don't touch it!" *Runs over to stop child*

Me: *Looks at them like their crazy* *Touches hot stove anyways* ....*Starts screaming and crying*

Parents: "Kimberly! We told you not to touch it because we knew you would hurt yourself! Listen to us next time! *Grabs, kiss child's hand, and puts a bandade on scar*

Our heavenly Father is like our parents. When we were younger, we wanted to touch the HOT stove, but our parents said NOOO IT WILL HURT IT and LEAVE SCARS! DO NOT TOUCH! The same applies to God. He tells us to not have sex or any sexual activity outside of marriage in hopes of  protecting us because He cares 1000000000000x more than your earthly parents ever could. He sees the things that could potentially happen to us if we go down that path. He wants to protect us from the scars that will appear due to disobeying Him by having sex outside of marriage.

Safe sex is sex in the confines of marriage. This is the truest form of safe sex. Does a condom protect you from your feelings getting hurt?......Sex is such an interesting topic and our culture is obsessed with it. We are constantly being bombarded with billboards, tv shows, and music that portray sex as this very coveted intimacy between two people.

In our culture, one's virginity, girls and guys, are no longer held to be sacred. Casually sleeping together with individuals has become the new normal and frankly this is very sad and my heart mourns for this generation. Our generation downplays the beauty of sex and just focuses on the physical part. Sex is intended to be physical, mental and spiritual!

People have this pre-conceived notion (I once held this belief) that God hates sex and that He is forbidding me to have fun and enjoy something that is an innate desire of mine. Let's stop right here! THIS IS FALLLLLLSSSSSEEEEE!

You see, what people fail to realize is that God loves sex! I meannnn He created it! It is one of God's most precious gifts that He gave to us humans to enjoy. A whole book of the Bible (Song of Solomon) was dedicated to the erotic passion a married couple experienced within their time of intimacy with eachother. Sex is the combining of two persons so that they become one flesh (Ephesians 5:31).

What God does not like and actually hates is premarital sex. He hates EVERYTHING that has to do with sexual immorality outside of marriage. If you have to second guess yourself if a particular sexual act counts as sexual immorality, most likely, 100% it probably is.

"But Kimberly, UGHHHH why does God not want me to have sex now while I am young? I have needs" , you may be saying to yourself. Well..I thought these same things at a point in time. What I have learned over the years and through revelation is that God simply just wants the best for you because you are His beloved child! He advises us not to have sex outside of marriage because He is veryyyy aware of all of the damage it produces when we do it outside of the way He set it up.

Even if you do not necesarrily have physical sex but do other things that would be considered sinful in the sight of God, it still leaves emotional scars and He is aware of the baggage that is left over after the relationship. He is aware of all of the heartache and tears. He is aware of the unhealthy soul ties that were created. He is aware of the countless nights you cried yourself to sleep and how those tears turned into bitterness and hatred. He is aware of the possible diseases that can be contracted. He is aware of the potential children that can come forth out of wed-lock. He is aware of the unnecessary drama and the shame it brings.

 Everything God does is out of complete love. Jesus came to the earth so that we might have life and have it more abundantly; that we might live a life of freedom. God is not about religion. In my opinion He hates religion and rules that constrict us like chains. He wants people to live in His freedom and with His help and guidance, pursue Him with everything they have. That being said, don't get so caught up. If you have fallen into sexual sin or any other sin for that matter, repent, ask God for help and begin a new path!!! God is waiting with open arms!

Even if you are not a virgin or have committed sexual sin, God is more than able and willing to forgive. Regardless of our past, He works EVERYTHING for our good (Romans 8:28). Make a covenant with God today to wait to experience the ultimate joy He has for you and your future husband/wife today. Satan wants to trick you into thinking that having sex out of marriage is A-OK and that it will not hurt you. The lies he tells!!!!! EVERYTHING Satan says is a LIEEE! He tricks us into thinking a condom is safe sex. We must be mindful to read between the lines and realize the trickery that is being played right before our eyes.

Just wait! Patience is a virtue, waiting will never hurt you :) Remember, the safest sex is within marriage and the BEST CONDOM IS MARRIAGE! Jesus loves you unconditionally!

Besos,
