and it is!
even if you’re talking purity of the body in general, there are so many other ways to practice purity that some overlook. however, we will not downplay sexual purity either. sexual purity is the key 🔑 to spiritual authority.
today we will be diving deep into purity of the body + the different ways we can honor God through this aspect of purity.
day two: ᴘᴜʀɪᴛʏ ᴏғ ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴏᴅʏ
This topic is not only based on what we do with our bodies but also what we PUT in our bodies. So many times I would be unhappy, and so tempted to turn to vices that would help me escape my current reality. However these vices were only pushing my body into even more of an impure state. The thing about indulging in activities that put your body at risk is that one thing is never enough. It becomes a trickle effect of continually trying to create a different reality and before you know it you’re stuck in a cycle that feels like it’s impossible to escape from.
In order to achieve purity you have to first be at peace with what God has given you. Your life, your circumstances + your experiences. It was easier to be content once I began to sit still and realize that all things good + bad were aligning me to walk in purpose. I was so tired of abusing my body as a getaway space that I surrendered the one thing that I valued the most, control💉
These symptoms usually start off as only happening once in a while and then quickly become a habit within our everyday lives. I encourage you to examine the why behind these symptoms, as difficult as it might be, address what needs to be given attention + as you move forward give yourself grace in these areas. Every day is a new opportunity to become 🤍
I am in no shape, form, or fashion going to tell you that any of the things placed above are easy, but I am going to tell you that they are necessary + doable. The best advice I can give you is to focus on your own walk. I wanted my walk to purity to look exactly like some of the woman that I admired, so much so that I sacrificed my authenticity and made it hard to connect with God and even myself from a personal place.
Your journey is your journey, you can’t shape it to directly reflect anyone else’s. Be intentional about implementing godly systems that lead you to one result, growth 🙏🏽
Here are some of my fav scriptures in reference to purity of the body. These verse truly give such a balance to this topic. Not only do these actions create a better outcome for our personal lives but also further aligns us for the will of God in our lives.
This. All of this. So encouraged by the breakdown of this post. From someone very close to the planet womanaire family🤍
