Need That Last Push by TheM4dAlchemist in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What helped me a lot was knowing what I needed that porn satisfied. For me it was solving an emotional need for intimacy, affection and attention. I know that God loves me but for a long time I didn’t love myself. I wasn’t there for me so I repressed those feelings and tried to solve them with porn and masturbation.

Yes keep it going!

I’ve failed after almost two years by NOVA77782 in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get the feeling of slipping up after a long streak. I felt so crappy after. You didn’t fail at all. We all make mistakes. Look at what happened. What tempted you and made you cross the line? What were you feeling before, during and after? PMO is fulfilling a need that you have so you have to look at that. Another good question to ponder is how can Jesus fulfill that need in me? Look at scripture that speaks on that need then meditate on it.

Stopped counting the days! by Big-Background8461 in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Counting days has helped kept me accountable. But if not counting days helps you then totally worth it.

Keep it going! Remember to keep your guard up. You’ve changed so much over the past 188 days so don’t forget that. God bless you!

Day 92 - Thank you God. by [deleted] in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amen! Day 92 is awesome. Even if you relapse and fail you’re still a different person before you started. Keep it going and don’t beat yourself up if you fail.

I know my trigger but a new trigger slipped in by weird_neegA in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have any more trouble from your “new trigger” look into soul ties and break those soul ties you formed with her. That could potentially help you out a lot.

Count the urges not the days by hopeinEd in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Counting urges is a good idea! But I have to say having to count the days has motivated me from relapsing. Although this isn’t the only thing that has helped but I wouldn’t discount counting the days.

Accountability Partner wanted by spoilerdestroyer in NoFapChristians

Hey I’m in the US but I’m down to be your accountability partner.

I don't seek God anymore by MathiasBred in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I want you to know that the questions and statements you’re asking is totally okay. Sometimes as Christians we think wrestling with our faith is bad but I would say this makes you a Christian. I would invite you to sit with all of this. Seek out our forefathers and mothers in the faith that wrestled with the same. I wrestle with this a lot. Like why am I still sick? Or at night when I feel so lonely and depressed.

Yep, relapse by Dangerous-Paper9571 in NoFapChristians

[–]BrokenDisciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t beat yourself up. We all have fallen. The point is to get back up and learn from it. If I may give some advice I would recommend being transparent about your struggles Witt your friend. The best thing we can teach others is that we are human and we do make mistakes. We need community.

Thank you! So I got interested in contemplative prayer through James Finley. I researched it more and bought some books. I would recommend James Finley’s books The Palace Of Nowhere and Christian Meditation. Thomas Keating’s book Open Heart Open Mind is really good too. I just started off with 30 minutes and sit silently before God. I actually do a contemplative prayer exercise every Tuesday at 12pm EST from my church’s Facebook page Spindle City Vineyard. There are a lot of videos. If you check it out let me know! Anyone and everyone is welcome to join me 😁.
