Sin, Deal with it.
Well we all do it. We are all born into it. But how do we get out of a life of it? I have struggled with Porn addiction since I bought my first computer. I have been a Christian 7 years prior to that. I have never really had an accountability partner, nor a mentor to show me how to get out of this sin. I revealled my problem to my wife about 5 years ago. Luckily she has stuck with me and continues to love me today. That is not to say in the past 5 I have been rid of my problem. I have had temptations since then and sometimes given in. But I decided that God is more important to me. She is more important to me. My kids and my testimony are more important to me. But I am important to them as well. Especially God.
So why, after all of my shinanagans and mishaps did I keep going back to it? Why does an achoholic keep going back? Why does an obese person continue to binge? Why does a liar continue to lie? Well it is because we are naturally human and BAD. We were born into this World that way, so why do we have this problem? Could someone grow up and not ever have any of these problems? Probably. Will they go to heaven or please God? Not if they do not except Jesus into their hearts. See I have found that we are inherently bad and that until we decied to fully and totally live for Christ, we can not please him. There is only one God and you can not serve two masters. Anything that has power and control over your life is a God. If it is not the God of the bible, it is an Idol. So this could be a number of things even your family. I am not pointing any fingers here cause I am guilty of sin as well.
But there is hope in our redeemer if we repent and ask for forgivness. If we have sinned against someone other than God, we should humble ourselves and seek their forgiveness as well. By the power of the Holy Spirit this can happen. We just have to have faith. I think God allows certain things to happen so that we see the error of our ways and seek the righteousness of his way. If we all will just humble ourselves.
I am still trying to figure this thing out so that I do not allow myself to be tempted to sin. We all know what our weak areas are and need to truly seek God when we are faced with the temptation to sin. But until we make a choice to be done with our old self, we can not expreience the greatness that God has for us. We also cannot be a light for others. So I pray to you, brothers and sisters, seek God daily. Pray, be involved at your Church, repent, stay in the Word daily, have accountabillity and trust in your maker. He is greater than anything in our life and he is the Creator!!!
