Hello everyone. This is my first time. Posting. If I made a mistake doing this please do forgive me. A year and half ago I ran into some legal trouble. I'm not going to go into any details. But let's just say I have made mistakes and I'm not proud of it. Because of this. I have prayed every single night since that day. But for some reason I feel like I'm being shellfish. Why pray now when I'm in trouble? I don't wanna just pray to let this pass me. I deserve what will happen to me in my future. What ever that maybe. I need help to accept with what I have done. I'm having trouble with that. I pray for that every nigh but it's hard. I honestly Don't know what I'm trying to say. But I need some advice. I'm desperate. It's killing me inside. Thank you all for who ever read this. And may God bless you.

Philippians 4:6-7

It's never to late to start a prayer life. The fact that you can recognize that hint of selfishness in your desire to be delivered of your circumstances is just the right kind of humility the Lord asks of us.

I honestly Don't know what I'm trying to say.

Romans 8:26

It's okay, God says if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

He may or may not let you suffer the consequences of your sin. He may give you mercy. But whatever happens, He has forgiven you already.

Oh, if I was in the same situation, I would CLAM up (LOL)

Seriously, if you have asked God to forgive you, and you are prepared to take the consequences, then that is all that you can do. If the consequences happen, and you have to face penalties, then accept it.

Remember that God has BIG shoulders. He can handle it if you yell at Him. He can also handle it if you need to cry on His shoulder. There are also people around that can and will pray for you. God bless you, I am praying.

The first video that I posted in post 2 has a blank spot for the first 47 seconds then will play normally.

Make sure you are saved. The videos will help to make sure.

If you're saved remember how God sees you:

FORGIVEN (Colossians 2:13) And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, HAVING FORGIVEN YOU ALL TRESPASSES.

COMPLETE (Colossians 2:10) And ye are complete in him

RIGHTEOUS (Romans 3:22) Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that BELIEVE

Hi; good to see you; God bless His Word to you; John's Gospel is a wonderful book of the Bible to get to know well; John 3.16 contains a wonderful summary of the assuring Gospel message.

Follow the procedure for "Answered Prayer" in my signature file.

We are all somewhat shellfish.
