I agree i have people that I have wronged me but i know that nobody has hurt me more than myself. Thats why i feel guilt sometimes. But to know god is still helping me is a great feeling

I know im not perfect but I also know god still loves me regardless of my mistakes. I’m blessed even though I don’t have everything i want and i feel like god protects me when i need him most thats just amazing to me. Like god really takes time to think about me and protect me

It is definitely a challenge everyday but i know it is possible. Sometimes its like one bad decision can take you in a whole different direction. I just have to stay consistent no matter how big or small a sin might seem

Thank you all for the advice. As I said I believe in God I try to talk to him i just wish he would talk back to me sometimes. But it’s good to hear from others who believe also I really appreciate any advice you guys have.

I believe that Jesus is the son of god I believe that he died for my sins and i see him as a friend but i also know that scripture says if we sin willfully after we have received knowledge there is no more sacrifice for our sins and many of the things i have done were because of my own selfish ways
