Proverbs 23:7
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he…
Being unfaithful doesn’t just happen one day out of the clear blue. You don’t wake up and think instead of a round of golf, I might just cheat today. No, it comes from deep, selfish, lustful, and continuous thoughts of what if? And, why not?
As a man/woman thinks in his/her heart…

Being unfaithful is selfishness at its finest and it causes much pain, sadness, resentment, and heartache. Precious children become pawns and often they feel lost, insure, and unsafe. Unfaithfulness is total disregard for the blessings you were given by God.
We all have choices to make. Yes, we are human and we make wrong decisions. But we do need to think things through thoroughly and with godly insight. Being unfaithful is cruel. It leaves lasting scars on the most innocent of hearts. Hearts that love you. And it’s a guilt you will carry until death.
What is the cost of being unfaithful? The cost is massive. You very well could lose your marriage, your reputation, and the hearts of your children. And in the long run, it could cost you Heaven.
Faithful. Be that person. ♥️

The biggest thing I have is when the trust is broken it is very difficult to get it back. You can forgive but you can’t forget.

Parent, children, and grandparents hurt the worst. One person’s weakness causes grief for many others

I struggled with porn for a long time! Though I haven’t willingly looked or watched any in years, it still replays in my mind.
A lot of people don’t think it’s adultery or fornication. But it certainly is. Nobody can look at it and not place themselves in that situation. And it does hurt people. It affects how a man views women, vice versa.
You don’t even have to touch someone else to be unfaithful.
