So this is somewhat of a testimonial and what I have done wrong with my walk with God. I became a Christian when I was in the 8th grade on a camping trip with our high school (private Christian high school obviously). I was floored it was something that was very real to me, but as time went on I saw the same people that were supposed to be followers of God around me do a complete 180 and turn to partying and drinking etc. I didn't lose my faith or anything to that extent but much later on in life around 17 years of age we discovered that I had a severe pectoral deformity. And without going into to much details it was easily to see visually and affected my health and I had to have surgery. Which left my body in a "broken state" for nearly 4 months. Around 18 years or so I just got angry with God, I still had a relationship with him but wouldn't pray as much just wondering why I would be cursed in such a way. And this chest surgery had severely affected how self conscious I was towards myself, and because so just as much as talking to girls made me feel vulnerable.
Ever since I was little I have just wanted a stable relationship, get married and have a family that has always been my dream. And because of my conditions and what was happening at the time I felt like this dream would never come to pass. So instead of praying about it and seeking guidance like I should have. I began feeling sorry for myself and got addicted to inappropriate contentography. But then something only God could have planned happened. I met someone who I know the Lord has designed for me and we have been going out for more than a year. But the only problem here is that we had pre marital sex a few times... because at the time I thought if I wouldn't for some reason she might have left me. Which is bad reasoning, but now we recommitted ourself to what the Lord wants from us. And I still struggle with inappropriate content every once and awhile, when times get really hard and I get depressed. But ive been going good for awhile now.
I just hope God will forgive me for my actions, I know ive upset him and made some poor choices. But im trying to recommit myself, to be on fire for the lord and not mediocre and lukewarm as I had before.
