It isn't always easy to listen to the Holy Spirit when it affects our daily lives like this, but it's so worth it in the end, and really such a blessing just knowing you are being obedient to what He is calling you to. Many prayers for your future decisions in this!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02740657423253697304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7636767107796866937.post-15238869875739731762013-09-19T14:57:45.391-06:002013-09-19T14:57:45.391-06:00Just read this entry today, it is good.

We were thinking more of the violence and language, but I never thought of the effect of sexual content on Steve and I - thanks for your prospective!MauiMamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12220664214343666697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7636767107796866937.post-73034313484665824052013-07-11T08:49:48.364-06:002013-07-11T08:49:48.364-06:00Hey Adriana (or should I call you AJ?) :)

I also feel alone in my thoughts at times. There are a lot of movies and music I can no longer listen to without feeling uncomfortable. There was a time where I would not think twice about what I was watching or listening to but now I change what's on frequently to keep my mind from being polluted. Good to know I'm not alone!!!Adriana aka AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10036524207005362488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7636767107796866937.post-91630025808605951502013-04-25T08:45:41.253-06:002013-04-25T08:45:41.253-06:00Thanks for your comment Trisha- sometimes when i w...Thanks for your comment Trisha- sometimes when i write these things I feel so alone in my thoughts. It's so refreshing to have like-minded friends that are so encouraging. You are very right that different people are affected by different things. Sexual content was a trigger for us for obvious reasons, but I can imagine there are many that don't struggle with that.<br />That's ridiculous about TV's in 3rd world countries!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02740657423253697304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7636767107796866937.post-20772573891929077232013-04-24T19:37:52.934-06:002013-04-24T19:37:52.934-06:00It's amazing how soft our spirits can become o...It's amazing how soft our spirits can become overtime. I was the same as you. I LOVED horror movies, but knew full well what they were about (after all, I was a pastor's daughter). I can no longer watch any horror movies and even some thrillers, as my stomach has gotten weaker and my spirit stronger. Trust me, I've tried. But, I realized it was opening up fear in my life, and I needed to shut that door. For each person it's a different journey, and some people can watch/listen to things without being affected like others. <br /><br />As for the sex life, I do recall hearing they were thinking of introducing free cable television into third world countries to help with bringing the baby making down a few notches. Something to do rather than make babies, I guess.Dishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14577033450687771820noreply@blogger.com
