I'm a Christian, born and raised. But, I haven't acted much like one at times. I've lied, plenty of times, cheated, stole, hurt people, etc. I love God but I feel like I always make these mistakes and that in the end... I won't make it in to be with him. It makes me cry because I feel so flawed because of the sin within' me. This is exactly why my favorite scripture is Romans 7:15 - 25. I can relate so much to it. How do you fight the urges within' you to act out?

Am I as horrible of a person as I feel...?

No. Each of us make mistakes and we are all imperfect. Sure, our mistakes make us feel less than worthy, but God is a forgiving and loving God. There is forgiveness and a second chance.

Hello there. I just wanted to say before I begin that no one is born and raise as a Christian. We need to born again to be a Christian. I am not saying that is not you, but just want to clairify that because many people believe that they are born as a Christian with no Salvation experience turning point.

But I have one question for you. This might be unrelated, but I am just curious. Is there anything that you desire you could change on your outward features if you have been given a choice?

I'm relatively new in the faith (6 months old). And let me tell you something, our walk with the Lord Jesus isn't one that is always going to be straight/paralleled in our own standpoint. That is the whole point of how He straightens us out according to Him. He is fashioning us in His image to be presentable to the Lord the Father. According to Man's view of progress, it is nothing like the Lord's so, stop beating yourself up. That'll only weaken your Faith I almost wanted to do that today after backsliding but was quickly reprimanded and said let me correct the little that I can and move on. It is all we can do. We aren't the one's who save ourselves remember, it is Christ Jesus. smile Pray you stay strong, stay brave with the utmost Faith in God. smile
