Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
Revelation 2:4
So okay yes I do love God for all that Jesus has done for me. And I know that if I seek God with all my heart I will find Him (Jeremiah 29:12-13). But the problem is when I was younger I decided that I would honor God and pass up chances I had at sex, for my first 5 years as a Christian no problem, I could still find girlfriends. Will now after be a hermit for so long, I feel as if God has rob me of any chance with the opposite sex, and now I'm nearly 47, and fill like the biggest loser for following this route, yes I still a virgin, and it is wrecking my relationship with God. I know some people have no problem with this in their live, and more power to them. But every time I try to get closer to God I can hear these four verses in my head:
And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
Genesis 2:18
Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
Proverbs 18:22
Nevertheless to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
I Corinthians 7:2
Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
Hebrews 13:4
So how can one, who is having this kind of issue with their faith, truly seek God with all ones heart?
