Viva El Sto. Niño Jesus!
The Christmas season is almost over. Does it still matter if Christ's incarnation has still some saving effect on my poor soul as a repentant sexual addict? It seems it doesn't matter anymore.
Let's rather count how many hours are there in a day. For that 24 hour given to you, how many hours did God gave you with chastity and no struggle against it?
That's it! I should rather focus on celebrating the chaste hours of my life than wallow in pity my last relapse. And rather than always worry about recurrences and future relapses, just enjoy the present chastity God is giving us repentant sexual addicts here and now. What a gift that I have been praying for for so long but I am just not minding! It is this fruit of God's mercy in my soul that I should celebrate and be always conscious of and joyful with. What does it profit me if I gave all my riches to the poor while I still commit sexual sins! But alas, God is making me experience the fruit of His graces of chastity I don't deserve even a bit. His Great Mercy has worked, is working, and will always work in me.
Jesus, Jesus, come to us!
