My name is Christian, I am a college student working towards becoming an engineer. I am new to these forums, hopefully everything I write is according to the rules. If anything is out of place, I wish a moderator to remove it immediately.
My problem: Recently I got really mad at someone. This person was just someone I played a game online with. I was so angry with this person (internally) that I wished condemnation upon them. I also went as far as to thinking about trading my soul to the devil to maliciously get back at this person.
This was all done in anger, but hours later I came to realize how (incredibly) stupid I was. I did send an apology to that person, and we parted ways. However, I felt as though I had too been condemned for comdemning another person. I have this massive chasm in my chest that I'm having trouble getting rid of.
I did ask for forgiveness from Jesus, but this void still exists. It is almost as though Satan is constantly whispering into my ear that he has my soul in a handbag, and he is never going to let it out. I've lost a great deal of sleep and apetite for the last 2 days. To make things worse, my summer class is brutally hard, and this depression I'm in is making things worse.
I'm planning on meeting with my pastor soon (He was gone/unavailable) today. I've memorized Romans 8 38-39 to get me through the day, but I can still feel burning inside sometimes. Perhaps this is due to the inability to forgive myself, or perhaps because I cannot comprehend that Christ's forgivness can cleanse this from me.
I joined this forum today to share this with anyone who is willing to read it. I desperately need prayers and spiritual guidance. If anyone can reccommend some scripture to help me cope/understand/deal with this, I would be greatly appreciative. I've been living "Hell on Earth" for the past 48 hours. I've been feeling desperately hopeless, even when reading scripture of God's promises. Please pray for me and/or leave advice etc. I really hope I can get a good night sleep tonight.
