I asked for salvation at a very young age, then went … not wildly astray but definitely off the straight and narrow in my young adulthood.
There are verses such as Hebrews 10:26 that say that “if we deliberately continue sinning after we have received knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice that will cover these sins”, but then also verses about how “for we all like sheep have gone astray”, and also the fact that there have been plenty of chances to go ahead and remove me from the game board where his miraculous grace has brought me through.
At the end of the day, I’m weak and flawed, and can only plead the blood. It took a long time, but Progress is finally being made. Hopefully.
Here’s a funny one, being surrounded by your enemies can feel like you’ve come up under a curse - as if you’ve been cut off from your people as a result of your sins, and maybe that’s so, but… it also allows for a table to be prepared in the midst of your enemies. Halleluyah!
I thank you for sharing a bit of your story fren. I shared a similar trajectory on my path and have found myself back where I started but with alot more knowledge and understanding, funny how that beginning to the end works.
