When do you find yourself drawn to sexual memories? What is it you are needing that you’re seeking to get from those memories/sexual thoughts? Can those memories really give you what you’re seeking? Or is it a facade; a mirage? Choose truth over facade. What has God provided to meet your need in this moment?

It’s my desire to let nothing keep me from complete freedom. If a memory comes up and starts to feel pretty big, I want to invite God’s light to shine on it and expose it so that it doesn’t stay in the dark. As God leads, in times like this, I share the memory with a sister in Christ and let the Holy Spirit shine His light on the memory and heal and free me from its bond. There may be forgiveness required, or I may need to renounce a lie I believed and agreed with based on that memory. God’s leading is so kind and He is perfect in His timing. For me, these memories have been remembered one by one, perhaps something someone says or does triggers an unusual response in me, and then I realize that there is an old memory that was brought up through this present-day interaction. Sometimes also, that memory might come with a thought like, “You shouldn’t tell anyone that.” I think that if you feel that, you should tell a trusted sister, and get the light on it! I intentionally pursue truth wherever I realize I have believed a lie, or where a memory still has some hold on my identity. And then God shows me where He was in that moment. He shows me His face towards me, which always reflects the most mind-blowing, overwhelming, incomprehensible expression of love. And He shows me that Jesus’ blood covers that place. Ask Him to show you where He was in that moment. Ask Him to show you how He was looking at you in that moment. Ask Him to show you the Truth that replaces the lie.
