by seeing the larger picture and knowing what God has in store for you and LISTENING to HIM, it should not be difficult. i say that from personal experience.

Lol...I agree with you. If we listen to God and focus our minds on what the word tells us, staying abstinent is not difficult.
It goes back to what Paul tells us in Romans 7. When we want to do good, evil is right there with us. Our minds want to follow God's Will, but our bodies want to follow another law--the law of sin. The body and mind wage war against each other just like Iraq and the United States.
Lol. Thanks be to God through Christ who tells us how to overcome these challenges.
