Don't Pretend You Don't Know!

We went for grandmother's burial ceremony several years ago when I was still a single lady. And one of my male cousins started touching me in a funny way. I studied how he was moving close and close.

And every where I was during the few days we spent at home, he must be with me. Despite he was my first cousin, I saw lust all over him. I did not pretend that I didn't notice.

I called him to order! He was ashamed but I had to let him know that sexual feelings towards your relative is out of place.

If I pretend I didn't take note it may not end well. Stop lust as early as you notice one. A lot of ladies were sexually abused by their very close relatives. And of course they might have been touched carelessly by these same relatives without complain to their guardian or parents.

Most times you pretend you didn't notice someone throwing passes at you. You laugh at his or her frequent stupid lustful jokes. This is the same person who eventually abused you sexually or made you fell into temptation. When you are faced with lustful people be frank to say No to their sexual advances.

What people feel sometimes is LUST and not LOVE! Many are ruled with the spirit of lust. And when you come in contact with any of such people, you must be sensitive to know. You must also be sincere with yourself, and be sure you are not also ruled with same.

Lust is expressive through languages, choice of words in speech and chats , dressing, behaviours, looks, pictures, actions etc The bible says out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

From choice of words, emojis, actions and behaviours, you can easily know where the journey is heading.

Naturally, the body is weak. Several people that are able to detect lust, still allow themselves to be trapped. At an instance of discovery, lust must not be given further attention. If not, one may be carried away.

When lust is not controlled it will give birth definitely to sin. "Then when lust hath conceived, it bring forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bring forth death" Jam 1:15
