When we are young, we take our energy for granted. We think nothing of staying up till after midnight, being active all day and spending hours laughing, talking and sharing with our friends. All this energy created by active hormones makes sexual temptations particularly stronger on the younger generation. But all of us face temptations to fulfill our own desires when they conflict with God's commands or principles.
The way to be victorious can sometimes be relatively simple. "Run like the Dickins." Or as Paul puts it to Timothy, "Flee youthful lusts" (2 Timothy 2:22).
