Hello together,
a short testimony from me:
I was about 15 years on the path where I became bitter against circumstances, how Jesus led my life, and accused others.
As a result, my old porn addiction came back and was worse than it had been in a long time. I was constantly looking for erotic videos, even after the meetings and hid from my friends.
I couldn't handle the fact that despite a long life of faith, I was "just as" bad at it as a worldly person.
For years it went with these lies and hypocrisy ...
At some point it went so far that I lost my job and almost had to leave my church.
It broke me up inside and I started to talk honestly with Jesus about it. I remember sitting in front of a video and watching it and I told Jesus, "look, I'm caught in addiction and lies, I just can't get away from it". We watched the video "together", so to speak.
Later it got easier and easier and also met my current wife in a few months. The conversations with her, then the prayers of the community helped me out and I've been "clean" ever since .... We also got married in a year.
What has become important for me during this time:
- if I hold on to sin, it will kill me sooner or later.
- when I can no longer talk about the problems, the alarm bells should ring. I am in very great danger.
- No sin comes alone. If I sin in small (bitterness), the big sins come along.
Be wiser than I am. If you are not free from sin, fight to come into the "light". The light dispels the darkness.
With love
