In the overly sexualized world that we live in, the idea of our sexuality is being seen less as a gift and more as a right. Unfortunately all this does is drive our world deeper into the pit of lust and promiscuity.<\/p>\n<p>As men we have the power to straighten the path in which we are heading down. The only question is<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you willing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Guys, we are blessed with the opportunity to be surrounded with the beauty of our sisters in Christ, but we continually abuse their presence in our life.<\/p>\n<p>When God created Eve he took a rib from Adam\u2019s side in order to give her life. Woman came from man\u2019s side to be equal, under his arm to be protected, and by his heart to be loved. Men, we must lead our society back into a state where women are viewed not in lust, but in love. It is us who have lead our world to the place that it is in, and it is time for us to clean up the mess.<\/p>\n<p>We have turned our world into a place where women feel that they must impress men through their eyes instead of through their hearts. What does that say about us? What it tells me is that it is time for us to begin painting a new image for what a man looks like, especially towards women.<\/p>\n<p>In order to do this we must begin seeing women not as objects or for their physique, but for their hearts. We must recognize their beauty and their roll as a daughter to our Creator. We must start with our desires and the fact that these desires are natural and they serve a purpose. Our sexuality is a gift given by our Father. It is meant to glorify our God and to bring life to his kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>Continue Reading at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collaborativecatholics.org\/content\/making-man-out-you\" target=\"_blank\">Collaborative Catholic Formation Ministires<\/a>\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>By\u00a0<span class=\"node-name\"><span class=\"username\" xml:lang=\"\">Dylan Browning<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know, I really wish I could just go troll Instagram or Facebook without the lustful temptations that seem to be hiding around every other click.
