Pray for healing and forgiveness

Comedy is a pretty light "punishment"! Laugh along with God for all the better "outcomes" than we expected!

Yesterday I was drunk and I made TVs horrible decision to dishonor god. I have been drowning in sin recently, and I decided to go to the strip club. I couldn’t find it, and when I was walking around the city I sprained my ankle out of nowhere at least 3 times. When I arrived it was closed. It is very clear that god is punishing me, and I am having a hard time asking for forgiveness because I feel the lords face is turned away from me

Sorry but your bad day makes me smile. Chastened not forsaken.

If GOD was turned away from you HE would not have chastened you. GOD only chastens those HE loves. Get on your knees and go through all your sinful thoughts and actions, then repent of them truly and pray for forgiveness, then put them behind you and continue your walk with GOD. Satan does not want you to do this, he wants to keep you in sin so, he will put doubts in you about your worthiness for GOD's forgiveness but we as sinners have never been worthy. It has only ever been through GOD's grace and faith in Christ and His blood we have forgiveness.


Take care and remember
God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth

Peace be with all those in the body of Christ

(You were drunk and sprained your ankle, and clubs close at certain times. Don't blame God. He's still there for you.)

Lord be with Mtol117. That he'd know your goodness and grace to start over, when we mess things up. To learn and grow and move on. Thanks for forgiving us if we are confessing. In Jesus name, Amen

9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. [1Jo 1:9 NIV]

This may be worth moving over to the Christian Advice thread...in any case, I will lift you & all the influences in your life up in prayer. May you thank God for keeping you away from the strip club & praise Him for the chance to repent! Stay optimistic, like God does.
