New and struggling

[oncemoreintothefrey]

I am struggling with an addiction to pornography. I absolutely hate that I even entertain the thought of looking at it as it destroyed so much of my life. It isn’t even enjoyable for me, but more of a compulsive action. If I keep myself busy I can avoid it, but I’ve failed a few times in the past week and although I know God forgives me I detest that I can’t simply stop. I suppose I am looking for advice from someone who has overcome this issue.
It’s sad that any other thing I’ve dealt with has been simple to kick (alcohol, drugs, sex, language) but this plagues me.

Thanks,
Johnathan

Precious friend, yes, as DL Moody said "The Bible Will Keep you from sin, and sin will keep you From
The Bible." So, A Lot More Saturation With God's Precious Word Of Truth = a Lot Less sin, eh?

Did you know that God Actually "prays" For us? Please see # 7 in this Bible study:

God's GRACE Word for our infirmities

Amen.
