Purity

Dear God, I don't know what's happening, but I need your help. I want to understand love, but all I can think about is sex. I don't want to be obsessed by it or afraid of it, but sometimes I feel like I'm both! Sex is supposed to be a gift for marriage, but I'm struggling to understand it now. I don't want to be immature about it, but I just don't know how to handle things: my feelings change, my attitudes change; I feel curious and then nervous and then guilty and then anxious. Please, God, just help me to live faithfully and with integrity, bringing my confusion to you with straightforward confidence in your all-powerful love for me. Guide me, Lord! Amen. -Juanita
