Default Help Me Overcome. - 05-22-2008, 05:45 AM
Ok everyone... this is my total honest cry for help. Do not worry I am in PureLifeMinistries and havce a counselor but.. what I would really liek is tons of support from people who don't love me.... and love the Lord Jesus.... and will send me messages of joy and paragraphs of hope for my life..


Everything with P+M is a struggle... and I so want to overcome this horrid disgusting sin.. It isn't goign to be easy with all the praying and reading that I am goign to encounter for the next 3 months of this program.

Sometime I give in.... while I sit in the middle of my churches sanctuary and that makes mee feel so bad... and i start to think of things... like who am i to do this right in the very eyes of God... but he is always right beside me anyways.... watchign me and holdign is arms open wide waiting for me to turn to him.... why is that so hard... It makes me cry.. in joy thinking abotu how he never hates me or angry... but he sure has the right to.

Hey i'm so glad you joined. I have no idea who you are but I love you for who you are, we all do. For that is one of The Lord's greatest commandments. I know exactly how you feel right now, for I went through all of that. The desperation, the confusion and rage at ourselves knowing that we repeat our sin over and over, each time knowing perfectly well what we are doing but still doing it. The guilt that crashes on you immediately afterward. The disconnection you feel from God. It all feels like a downward spiral spinning out of control and you’re just stuck in the middle of it all helpless. But there is hope and if we really seek, we will find, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. (Matthew 7:7-8). So no matter how many times we need to get on our knees and sob over and again repenting the same sin, Jesus loves us just the same and that’s truly a beautiful thing. How many times does a righteous man fall, how many times do we forgive, how many times will we be forgiven? There is hope and you know where to look for it. Believe and you will overcome.

Sarerah,

Welcome to our neighborhood.

Each of us has our struggles. And I think that it is extremely hard when you have faith in Jesus and feel that what you are doing with P & MB is hypocrisy. But it is not. It is your struggle to fight and with His help you will be successful. Remember, you do the best you can, but He will carry you when you can't walk anymore.

Keep your faith and keep your passion to succeed.
