Withholding Begins in the Garden

I want to share with you truly a revelation God has given to me as I have been faithfully in the laboratory of marriage and addiction for over three decades, this revelation is taken from an old testament scripture and will show you a sin pattern that God responds to quite strongly again and again. I liken what I am about to share with you as trying to understand the fathers heart. Growing up with your natural father you wanted to know two major things 1) what pleased your father and 2) what displeased your father. The sin of withholding goes back to the book of Genesis. After the first sin in the garden, we see Adam and Eve placed outside the garden.

5 Daily Exercises to Help You Believe You Are Worthy

I remember being in my dorm room in Bible College, having gotten radically saved just a few weeks prior to admission. An “I’m not worthy” voice began to talk to me.

Intimacy Anorexia Patterns #5

Intimacy Anorexia Patterns #4

Most individuals who do not struggle with intimacy anorexia recognize how little control they truly have over many aspects of their lives. They understand that controlling other people is unrealistic, especially when managing their own thoughts, emotions, and behaviors can be challenging enough. They do not place their confidence in the illusion of control or exhaust themselves trying to manage how others perceive them. For most people, attempting to control every circumstance, relationship, and impression would simply be overwhelming and exhausting.

Intimacy Anorexia Patterns #3

If you are not an intimacy anorexic, this particular trigger may be difficult to understand. As human beings, we are all flawed. We make mistakes, lack knowledge, hurt others, embarrass ourselves, and sometimes find ourselves confronted or exposed when those shortcomings become apparent. Most people recognize that imperfection is simply part of being human. However, for someone struggling with intimacy anorexia, maintaining the image of being good, capable, or without fault can become extremely important. When that carefully protected image is threatened and their flaws are exposed, it can trigger a pattern of intimacy anorexic withholding behaviors.

When you are married, you are God's son in law. How do you think God would grade you as his son in law? What we love we protect, and what we protect we love. If you are protecting a sexual secret, then you are loving the behavior or the pornography and hurting the people you love.
