Way of Purity Testimony: Jerry Caldwell
It wasn't but six months ago that I was desperately seeking pleasure in everything the world has to offer. Like the teacher, I sought for pleasure in pleasing the flesh, in business, in social clubs, in sports, in drinking, and much more. But, like the wind, I could never catch it. True pleasure always eluded me. But when I was convicted of my sin, in July of 2000 and began seeking Christ, I found in Him an endless stream of delights. Oh, how He encourages the heart, and soul.
If you are seeking pleasure in pornography and sexual impurity you are drinking water from the wrong source. If you are seeking it in any other source than Jesus, you are dooming yourself to an eternity of thirsting, and never being quenched.
Oh friend, do as I did give up! Submit to God, listen to Him, remove wickedness far from your tent, and assign your golden nuggets of earthly pleasure to the dust to be trampled on. Then watch how your heart begins to delight in the Almighty God.
I am glad I discovered that I am to delight in the Lord. And I am glad I am finding joy in Him. I will not trade this birthright of joy in Jesus Christ for all the worldly delights there are; they are but a mess of pottage in comparison.
