i need advice, on the edge

[nashvillechick0913]

okay...I gave my life to Christ when I was 17...My whole world changed around for the better after that..I am a Ind. Fund. Bap. and i try very hard not to think about my past and let it swallow me up but what do I do when my own mother is constantly reminding me and throwing the past in my face? I dont come from a christian family....i just need some advice because i truly feel broken....

Glad to have you aboard. I'm also an independent Baptist fundamentalist.

Tell your mother that, yes, everything she says is true. Explain how you've been forgiven.

Now comes the hard part. Everyone will be watching you, waiting for you to stumble. Accept this as a tool that God uses to keep you on a straight path.

Do not believe for a second that your sins are not forgiven. Jesus Christ shed His blood for your sins and they are forgotten and you are forgiven. The world wants you to believe its lies because its ruler is the father of lies. Pray and read the Bible frequently and you will be strengthened to deal with those who oppose your faith in Christ.

Remember it is not YOU the world hates, it is CHRIST. Hang in there friend, the Lord is your strength.

Thanks for the support, I guess its just really hard because I am young and I know I am responsible for creating a generation of christians since I am first generation and I know that my future generations will rest on my Husband and I`s shoulders so it get hard sometimes but I pray that as I grow in my faith that I will grow out of caring so much what others say and think. god bless

God will put you through trials of faith and it is your duty to stand and meet these trials with the strength of faith with which God has imbued you. You must be willing to abandon all worldly things, even family, when the true test of faith challenges you.

Great responses here. I just want to add that I think you have a great outlook on this situation, and I encourage you to stay on this strait path.
