I do know I honestly believe in Jesus, and hope beyond hope that reality will be eternal life. I also honestly wish to follow all the teachings of Christ, and to be a servant of God. So this seem to indicate I am a good person.
The same time I suffer, but perhaps deserved, because I've truly been a great sinner, and I can hardly bear to thought of my own self and when I think of my weakest and worst moment in life. Where I've been full of desire, intoxicated, deluded and still are as if I'm two people, one of darkness and one of light, in a war against myself.
So what are my "true self", the acts I've done, but so much regret I have serious problems accepting Christ, simply because I feel so unworthy, and that make me feel as it is just that I should just continue to suffer? Or are this feeling of being unworthy and my deep suffering a sign that I - although a sinner - can do no better then do the good I wish to be part of instead?
It's so easy when confronted with the sins of others, and I can see myself in them, to wave their worries away, and pray for them and only wish them good. Also although I've read countless books and know the great sins of mankind, and how horrifying dark and full of evil history have been, I don't wish for the fate of others to be suffering. I don't sit in judgement against others then myself. And this is a serious problem I have, to come to terms with "the depths of Satan" as I've seen into half my life, as I grew up as an unbeliever. I'm tortured and a soul that feel like the shadow of a ghost, wandering around a world I do not understand, do not want to be part of and I'm at the borders of what sanity can bear with trying to understand it all, but would do better I think if I somehow was able to put it all behind me, and be the good I wish to be.
