• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Yesterday I sinned, I made love to another man. The entire time I knew it was wrong but it felt so good and his soft words made me feel like I was in the presence of God Almighty. I don't know what to do, I feel I am craving him but I know I shouldn't. I am trying to stay on your path Lord, but I fear this trial is too much. I need help.

You sir, are deceived - and greatly. I can imagine that before this interaction you had little to no bond with the other males in your life. The smart thing to do would be to trust God's Word that says that action is sin and leads to death. Don't be like most people - most people think "but this feels so good, and my only alternative is to trust His Word" and they end up in sin becuase it FEELS better.

"There is a way that seems right to man, but in the end it leads to death." (Proverbs 14:12)

So you have two choices right now: repent and be saved live eternally through Jesus Christ OR choose the sin that seems to feel better right now and spend eternity in hell, constantly burning and fully aware of it all. This is not something to play around with.

Oh, and no this trial is not too much:

"There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it." (1 Corinthians 10:13)

So there you have it. If you continue in this, you know its sin and you know you there is a way out but you'd be choosing it anyway. To say otherwise would be to call God a liar.

Pray and next time you are tempted, think about what you really want in life. When I was having a much harder time struggling my whole body would get so cold I'd start shaking and every heartbeat ws like an earthquake to me, but God still gave me the ability to resist and if what you want is to resist then ask him and he will not dissapoint.
