I Am No Longer Worthy in God's Eyes

If she's dating me or wants to date me, it's fine.

Wouldn't that stir up lustful desires that might lead to premarital sex?

It communicates attraction. It doesn't lead to premarital sex unless both you and I (in this example) want it to. As for lustful desires, they happen regardless of whether or not a woman acknowleges my presence, and I have no reason to doubt that it goes the same way for women.

Good to know. Thank you

I committed sexual acts with someone out of wedlock just a few weeks ago. And to make matters worse, I found out that he was also married at the time. In just one second all of my usefulness was lost.

At one time I had a dream of saving my first kiss for my wedding day, now I never want a man to even lay eyes on me for fear of him seeing how dirty and disgusting I am. I'll never be able to be loved because of this, and I completely ruined my life.

God will never use me nor bless me. I should not even pretend to be a Christian anymore, and at times I just want to renounce my faith because I failed to please God.

The woman from the well who spoke with Jesus comes to mind for me. She was sleeping and living with men who were not her husband and Jesus knew it (and called her out on it). Yet He spoke with her anyway. Why would Jesus speak with such an openly sinful woman? Because He came to save her from her sins. Because He loved her as a child of God. He didn't think she was unworthy and filthy. He doesn't think of you that way either.

God is probably hurting with you and for you over this situation.

You are not useless. Nor are you "used good" or anything of that nature. Moses committed murder and yet God still found him pretty darn useful! Us women need to realize that our worth is not tied up in how pure we are or how much we sin. We have worth because God made us in His image.

We are worth something despite all our sins. Otherwise Jesus wouldn't have died for us at all. If God's love was based on our ability to please Him then not a single person in humanity would be saved. We'd all be destined for Hell. But we're not because God loves us.

Don't be so hard on yourself. Easier said than done. Just repent and take comfort in God's forgiveness.
