Young Single Adult Gems: Practicing Restraint

Gems for Young Single Adults
Practicing Restraint
—————————————————

“You cannot afford in any degree to become involved with pornography, whatever its form. You simply cannot afford to become involved in immoral practices–or to let down the bars of sexual restraint. The emotions that stir within you which make boys attractive to girls and girls attractive to boys are part of a divine plan, but they must be restrained, subdued, and kept under control, or they will destroy you and make you unworthy of many of the great blessings which the Lord has in store for you.”

Topics: pornography, chastity, plan of salvation
