 Hey, let's talk about masturbation. I want you to know whether you're a guy or girl, you're not alone in this struggle. What I don't want for you is to feel isolated in shame or guilt. God wants to free you from that. God created us as sexual beings, but He designed us for that sexuality to be expressed in covenant. While masturbation focuses on instant gratification, serving my own needs, my own satisfaction, my own pleasure, God's design for sexuality is that it would be self-giving. It would be self-less in the confines of marriage. The damage that masturbation does is it's teaching you to experience shame and guilt after experiencing sexual pleasure. You begin to equate sexual pleasure with something that's dirty or disgusting or wrong. But it's good and it's right and it's how we were created, but it just needs to be in the proper context. I want you to be free from that shame and guilt because God is in the business of bringing about sexual healing and redemption.
