Just me trying to be honest with God.

We were told to not play around with fire; the same could be said of desire .

“Flee youthful lusts.” 2Tim.2
People lust over any number of things, power, money, fame, and of course sex. The very nature of lust is to want what we do not have and have it without restraint. There is of course nothing wrong with natural desires so long as they are made to serve us rather than we them. Like fire in a fireplace, controlled desires can bring warmth, light and pleasure to our lives. But let that same fire out into your house and it will burn it to the ground.
