i have screwed up big time

[trumpeter1988]

Don't know if you all remember me but I used to be trumpeterforjesus88 on the old web forum.

I am studying in Salzburg, Austria until July 1.

Over here, I have made a few mistakes. Lets just say they were sexual ones with a girl I met over here and a few alcohol mistakes where I blurted out what I did and now people are making fun of me behind my back. Please don't ask me why I did it or the details. I knew it was wrong and I only blame myself. Was protected but that doesn't completely protect me from getting sick. I shouldn't have done it.

A few minutes ago I got put under conviction by the Holy Spirit and it's as if God was saying "I still love you and my arms are still open for you. I am not finished with you." I don't deserve one bit of it. I don't know why God didn't just strike me down with a lightning bolt once I got tempted.

Pray for me

hey man, its all good. God already forgave you, THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION in Christ.

We all make mistakes whether ir be one sin or the other. Certain sins take longer to heal and can have a knock on effect, but as the old cliche says you can now learn from your mistakes.

Iv been in exactly the same situation as you.

Keep your eye fixed on Jesus and you'll be fine.

There is no condemnation in Christ.

Hey man, I know where you're coming from. We fall down, feel like crap, get a word from Him that He ain't done with us yet, and still feel like crap and don't deserve it.

But there's something we need to remember: He'll work it for our good. He'll use this to help you out -- you may not see how, but He will. And you have to forgive yourself, too. Realize that you've been an idiot, but forgive yourself and ask Him to help you not do it again.

This thread probably needs a shave by now, but it's worth a bump. This is probably old news, but when you confess your sins and repent, they are gone, dude! The Bible says they are cast as far as the East is from the West, and that (to me) is pretty undefinable!:cool:

True... Hey, I also fall down and feel like I don't deserve such grace.

That is very true!!

That's why it is grace- it is undeserved!
