As has been said again and again in this book, our sexual nature is a
gift from God, with glorious possibilities in it of enriching
experience. That is why it is so very important not to misuse it.
Now if you really want deliverance, you have first to realize that the
seat of the trouble and of the cure is in the mind. (Occasionally there
is a slight abnormality that requires surgical treatment, but that is
exceptional.)
The content of the mind in ordinary times is even more important than
at the crisis. It may be too late then.
You must prepare the ground by resting on God even when you do not feel
the need of Him. Fill your mind with clean, healthy things, and expel
lustful thoughts, even though they may seem to have no special physical
effects.
Give full play to your affections--love of family, of friends, of men
and women, and children.
Devote your bodily strength, and the life force that is in you, to
great positive ends--the service of God and man.
Keep healthy. Here are wise practical details. Take plenty of exercise,
but not too much.
