Remaining pure is an every day battle. Sexual experiences, whether they include intercourse or not can leave you feeling weak, dirty, and hopeless. You turn to God and swear you will never go down that road again because of the way it made you feel. But time goes by, and circumstances change. The devil loves a challenge and knows exactly who to put in your way. You have to recognize it, expect it! That is why it is why it is so important to keep journals...it is easy to forget what you went through, and going back and reading can be a good reminder. So often we let our circumstances (loneliness, rejection, hurt) blind us. Have an accountibility partner, someone who can check in with you and help keep you on track. There are lots of things you can do to stay strong but most importantly, you have to have the will to do it.
