pornography tells us that bodies
are worth no more
than an internet connection
that lives are to be used and abused
without thought
without discretion.
the sex trade tells us that children
are worth no more than our passions
that love is not spiritual
but rather a physical interaction,
it tells us that those who cannot fight back
are to be taken
and spread out
for us to attack
but they are sorely mistaken.
and God said we are precious
that the bodies we are given are temples for His Kingdom.
He says we are made for no other
rather for the One who made us
our souls’ true Lover
the One who gave His body for our lives
He gave up His time on this earth
stared our sin straight in the eyes
and came back to give us eternity.
