All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

1989 When I and my wife agreed that she will be the one this time to accept the work abroad for a one year contract, as I will continue the church service here at home. Previously, I'm the one working abroad.
 This is the first time I will be doing every thing outside and inside the house with my six children. But two days before her departure, a woman from the USA drop by our church that Sunday and she heard about my wife going abroad. She speaks to us and said”. You have a good job here, why go out of your country and serve pagans". Those words begin to strike guilt in me. I knew it is a warning from God, because I felt the weight of her words. But since the contract was already signed and days left for her departure, there's nothing we can do but to abide in the contract. So I just pray to God all my tears to protect her bring her safe back home, and I promise that I will dedicate myself in doing my best to serve. I promised I will not commit my self in any sexual activity or lustful desire in exchange of her protection,.
1990 She finished the contract and I'm so relief.. And it was then when I realized that since the day she left, not even one time that I felt the urge or lustful desire or even bad dream at night or the so called wet dreams. The Lord keeps me busy by witnessing a numbers of miracles, interventions, and healing... A whole year experiencing the gift of CELIBACY! That’s my clear knowledge of what CELIBACY is. It has no struggle, not even trying to put away. It is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. ... It is really a GIFT FROM GOD.
.The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. [1 Corinthians 10:13]
