Lust
By Richard Exley

Lust Is Not The Result Of An Overactive Sex Drive.
It Is Not A Biological Phenomenon Or The By-Product Of Our Glands.
If It Were Then It Could Be Satisfied
With A Sexual Experience Like A Glass Of Water Quenches Thirst
Or A Good Meal Satisfies Appetite.
But
The More We Attempt To Appease Our Lust The
More Demanding It Becomes.
There Is Simply Not Enough Erotica In The World To Satisfy Lust’s Unquenchable Appetite
Therefore When We Deny Our Lustful Obsessions
We Are Not Repressing A Legitimate Drive
We Are Putting To Death An Aberration.
Lust Is To The Gift Of Sex What Cancer Is To A Normal Cell.
Therefore, We Deny It
Not In Order
To Become Sexless Saints
But In Order
To Be Fully Alive To God.
Which Includes The Full And Uninhibited Expression Of Our Sexual Being
Within The God – Given Context Of Marriage.
