Spiraling and Backsliding

[vitality22004]

I was always a christian, until the last 2 years(i'm 14). I still am, i just find myself backsliding ALOT and questioning God, but somehow God always gets through to me, and i love Him.

Then after i accept that He is Love, and Love is God, then i backslide again and again and again.

The more times i do it, the more i get sick of it. And the more times i do it, the worse i feel.

I dont know what to do, it just feels like i keep going in a circle, and i would like to get out of it.

Anyone feel the same, or anyone have any advice?

It's a question of choices: the unconditional love of God is not an excuse for sin. If we love Him, we choose to please Him in all we do. Even though there is forgiveness for backsliders, sometimes, God cannot protect you from the consequences of your sin so it is better to choose to live right. He's worth it. You have to love Him more than your sin and you have to choose to give up your sin. Its never easy but it's worth it.

Dan,

You probably have just sinned- Ask Jesus to forgive you. If you try to remind him of sins he has already forgiven-He doesn't remember. Only You and the devil remember. Forgive yourself. I don['t think the devil deserves us talking to us, but when he brings a thought about something I have repented of I remind him of his future. If he brings up someone who I have forgiven (in my past) I pray for them-He doesn't do it that often.

I think it is awesome at your age. Just hang in there. Do you know the more you dwell in his word and hide it in your heart-he can speak to you. He will answer questions. He is so real, and all he wants is to walk with Dan, talk with Dan, be friends with Dan, Live through Dan, walk through Dan, love through Dan. He loves Dan.

You know the devil brings condemnation (those guilty feelings after you have repented). The

Holy Spirit convicts us of sin, so we can get right- He does it out of Love-like your parents

correct you. But his love is perfect and without fail. Your still young and you have years to

enjoy growing in the Lord. Don't worry if you fall now and then-Just get up-dust yourself off and Go on. The Holy Spirit corrects us-sometimes it doesn't feel the greatest but the more

we respond and obey-we grow. I've taken some tests over and over and then I finally do

what I should have done in the first place. God is full of mercy and compassion. Sometimes these corrections or trial are hard because-disapline hasn't been established in our hearts. Just know that God loves you and has a better plan for you. Your life is for a purpose and with great plan. I praise God for your early conversion. Continue your walk of Faith. Continue in his word and let it grow, grow, grow.
