I Need Prayer!

I feel like such a hypocrite.

Here I am, trying to help other teens beat lust and pornography, and yet I'm doing those very same things. In the past few days I have slipped back into my old habit of pornography. I've always struggled with lust, but it's grown increasingly worse.

I just need prayer and I need to pray myself. I need to fix this before I get a t-shirt or anything because that would be hypocrisy. Matthew 28:23 says:

"In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness."

I feel just like that...I need to read my bible and pray really hard. 1 Peter 2:1 says:

"Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind."

It feels good to vent that.

Nate-Dog,

I am praying for you as I write this. That the Lord would give you strength to fight sin and put it to death. I am praying that you would rest in grace of Almighty God and realize that He is better than the world.

Know that I am praying for you and that you are not in this fight alone.
