I can't seem to keep my commitment...

[waiting4himj]

Hi all,

I'm new here. I felt like I didn't have anywhere else to turn. I'm a 32 year old single mom. I've been single for a while. After my last major relationship ended I made a commitment to God and myself to remain pure until marriage. Then I started dating someone and I broke my commitment. We had a physical relationship early on and that is probably why it didn't work out in the end.

After that relationship ended I repented, asked God for forgiveness, and recommitted to purity.

Then, this past weekend, I went to a party and had a one night stand with a guy I just met. I had been drinking and I made a huge mistake. I feel so ashamed of myself. I feel like I let myself down and more importantly I let God down. I can't believe I so easily fell into my old ways. I feel like I had made such progress and then WHAM I start back at step one.

I prayed last night and asked for forgiveness. I just can't shake this feeling of shame.

I know I'm brand new here, but any prayers / support would be greatly appreciated.

Blessings, Jenna

Our sexuality is a far more significant and therefore stronger component of our humanity than many will accept. And, once awakened it can be hard to resist.

You are not a failure, just a person who has failed to resist their sexuality.
