I'm a former recovering pornography addict and I've been fighting my imaginations and failing miserably to fight my passions and I fear my ever drawing closer to backsliding and I'm too embarrassed to bring it up to other Christians and I've found nothing but love and encouragement on this board. Please someone pray for me? I've been caught in the lust of the flesh and I just feel broken and cast down and feel the desire to hang in the towel. My failure of self control has left me contrite and ashamed and I don't know where else to go. I can't see how Jesus can have patience on me when that's a sin I used to be a repeat offender in and I've slipped quite a bit these past few months with no one to confide and confess to. Not the physical act of porn but the imaginations and self gratification and masturbatory nature thereof. It's an addiction I've been very open with with fellow believers in my circle but given my recent slipping backwards I'm just too ashamed to say it to them. Forgive the shitpost please. I just don't even feel Jesus wants to put up with me anymore. Which I know is a lie but when you fall into sin it's hard to believe He can forgive an offense been forgiven before. Apologies if for any unsightliness I may have caused by sharing.

Just always remember Jesus will give you another chance no matter what!
Lucifer has done a number everyone, but now that you have turned to Jesus the whole game has changed. You will be victorious by His side.
I have gone through a similar situation, and it is a process. But I am proud of where I am and I continue to seek Jesus no matter when I slip up or fail.
Thank you for the long-suffering of Jesus Christ, sibling. All of these messages from everyone has lifted my spirit by the Holy Spirit not to give up. I didn't know how much I needed everyone's prayers and love until I got up this morning to see all these pedes and siblings in Jesus Chest lending support. Thank you for being one of them. God bless you in Jesus name, amen
