Nine Ways to Bounce Your Eyes  







In my Images or Glory? program, I talk about bouncing your eyes to avoid pornography. Luke 11:34 reads:

Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy, your body also is full of darkness.

Jesus tells us that to become light we need our eyes to be healthy.

In my battle with pornography, here are nine ways I bounce my eyes to make my eyes healthy:
  1. I look away from sexual images.
  2. I avoid movies with sexual content. This has eliminated R-rated and many PG-13 movies.
  3. I opted-out of the Sports Illustrated swim suit issue. ESPN: The Magazine does not make that offer for its body issue so I cancelled it.
  4. I avoid television shows with sexual content. I pretty much only watch baseball, football, and some older comedy shows.
  5. I avoid watching the news. There is usually at least one story that is sexual in nature.
  6. When staying in a hotel, I rarely turn on the TV.
  7. Even though we do not have children at home, we set the TV parental controls to TV-PG.
  8. We have programmed our TV channel listings not to display any adult listings.
  9. I "unfollow" friends on Facebook that post anything of a sexual nature.

You may notice there is nothing listed regarding the internet. I have to be triggered and then I will go to the internet for pornography. Once I eliminated my triggers, the internet is not an issue for me.  

 

I know most porn strugglers must have some sort of controls on the internet. Please only use my list for ideas. Do not use it to justify or rationalize having a strategy or not. We are all different and have our own triggers. Be full of light. Keep your eyes healthy. Bounce your eyes.
