Addiction
I am addicted to ** and I am trying very hard not to view it or think about it, but I am having difficulty trying to kick this habit. While I am able to not look at it for a while, I always seem to come back to it. As a boy I was inappropriately touched and had experimental touching with a friend of mine when I was a boy.. probably soon after the molestation. I sometimes wonder if that had anything to do with my addiction to **. I am sad that I have become addicted to ** and will continue to try and stop the addiction, but I would like any or all who see this post to pray for me and to forgive me for my carnal bad habit. I am so ashamed. I am a Christian, and I try very hard not to judge anyone else, lest yea be judged. Which, if you are a Christian, is really what you should embrace. People make mistakes and are not perfect, but I am ashamed of my sexual ** addiction and I sometimes think that God will condemn me or separate himself from me. Sorry for the long post. How can he forgive me when I constantly fall. The guilt is never ending, but is a reminder to me whenever I start thinking about judging anyone else.

I am a Christian. The struggles that people go through are real. You clearly have been wronged. It is good that you are realizing you have a problem. Some don't have the strength to do that. Once you are addicted to something, the best way to let go of it is to remind yourself why you don't need it and all of the things it is stealing you away from. You are right that Christians should not be quick to judge. Yes, Christians must know what is wrong and right, but must leave judgement to God. Remember that Christ died so that we could have life and life more abundantly. The Bible says in Galatians 5:1 that "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm then and do not let yourselves be burdened again with a yolk of slavery.". Christ came to free us. Addiction is powerful and not something we can get past on our own. Remember that Christians are called to do what is right and that we have the Holy Spirit living within us as a comforter and guide. God said that he will not let us be tempted beyond what we can control. I pray that you receive freedom from this.
