God’s will is for you to be holy, so stay away from all sexual sin. Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor-not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God and his ways. – 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5(NLT)
GOD’S WILL
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you know the will of the Lord?
He clearly instructs you in his word
God’s will is for you to stay holy
He wants your heart fully.
Stay away from all sexual sin
Control all your cravings within
Those who are God’s holy people
They don’t behave like fools.

Many people live their lives without even knowing their destinies. It is a sad thing to witness someone who behaves like a little innocent child when they are already in the prime of their lives. Some people get stuck with experiences in their lives that hampered their growth. They still behave like little kids, lost and running around in circles. God’s will is very clearly stated in his word. He wants us to be holy and stay pure. One of the admonitions he gives us is to stay away from all sexual sins and to control our own bodies. The world has tainted our view of God’s authority over our whole being, including our bodies. God made everything including our bodies. If we succumb to lust, we are no different from the pagans.
