for anyone who cares literally at all I have to confess something. I've been struggling massively with addiction for a while now. I'm not exactly comfortable saying what the addiction actually is but I've been trying for months to quit. and every single time I try, I succumb to the temptation. I'm making a mockery of Jesus's sacrifice, and I hate it, and I want nothing more than to be able to overcome my addiction, but I simply don't have the strength. what am I supposed to do? it's really starting to feel hopeless.

Keep praying for it. Do not feel like it's back to square one if you mess up again. If you feel bad afterward and gross then that is God working on you. I can tell it has got you so disgusted that your wrote this post. You haven't before so you have made progress. Your spirit is getting more and more tired of your flesh and is crying out in anger in the form of a GAW post. You have moved forward you have overcome your seeing the battle and recognizing it. Just as God had overcome the Satan yet we still see the pains of the process. Dont confuse your frustration as your loosing ground. Your frustrated because you have already become a better you. Be angry with that flesh. Yeah you might do it again but it tastes less and less appealing each time I know, and you feel more and more frustrated with yourself. But I promise one day it will click and you will feel that peace.
