Since we’ve talked about the benefits to waiting for sex until marriage for both your mind and your body, it’s time to have a heart to heart. That’s right… there are heart benefits to waiting for sex until marriage. Everything you do flows from your heart. Perhaps you act on a desire or maybe an emotion, both flow from the heart. Let’s talk about emotions. Sex can certainly stir some up:
There can be a lot of pressure… what if I’m not good enough? What if he doesn’t stick around? What if I get pregnant? What if I get an STD? What if my parents find out? What if I regret it? And at times it can be an emotional rollercoaster. In marriage, if both you and your spouse are committed to one another, that emotional rollercoaster doesn’t exist. There’s stability and trust in your relationship. You both know the other person and can take comfort in that familiarity. The pressure has been relieved and both you and your spouse can sexually enjoy one another in a committed, loving marriage. At the Southern Tier PRC we know that your sex life is your choice. Our desire is to keep you informed so that you can make the best decision possible for lasting, fulfilling relationships. If you need to talk to a trusted peer-counselor about your relationships, contact us today. You’re not alone. We’re here to help.
