I want to proclaim that I have been freed from my depression and I have a renewed strength and direction as a follower of Christ! I am now hopeful for my future and I am glowing with the fullness of the Holy Spirit...because NOW I have fully commited my life to Jesus the Christ!!!!!!!!! I am no longer living on that fence of life wanting both the worldly ways and God's ways!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have struggled with a lack of self worth, self pity, self lothing, depresssion, compulsive over-eating, and clutter! I have completly cleaned my apartment, I have donated 4 bags of clothes so others who cannot afford clothing can be clothed! My kitchen is clean so I can make healthy meals for myself........I haven't lost the weight just yet but that will come in time....I feel that now I am FINALLY going the direction God wants for me. I feel that something even mor wonderful awaits my near future!

I finally have let go and LET God!!!!!! I'm not in control, only GOD is!!!!!!

I am in a current situation that I am in need of prayer for. I have been married a little over 2 years and my marriage seems to be going down hill and fast. I have made several attempts to "fix" the problems however, I often times feel like I am talking to a brick wall. I married at the age of 25, him 30, and at the time he was my "knight in shining armor" that saved me from a downhill battle with drugs. He pulled me out of that slump and started taking care of me and then eventually asked me to marry him. I said yes, and here I am, two years later asking myself if I ever actually loved him or if I married him because it seemed at the time, like the only option I had. I am so lost and confused and feel alone. There has been no "love making" or other in over 4 months and I feel like he is no longer attracted to me. With this being said, it has caused me to go plummeting into a spiral of a deep depression and the feeling of not being good enough. I feel as if I am almost on the verge of leaving him and moving on with my life to find true happiness, however was talked into marriage counseling (without him--his choice). I feel like there is one last attempt before I find myself walking away. I know I made a covenant to God, however I feel like my efforts are so one sided and it is making it hard for me to want to stay in this marriage. Please if you would, put me, Nichole and my husband, Paul's marriage in your prayers, for either an answer to my unsettling questions, or peace to be able to mend this marriage. I appreciate all the prayers given!!

With much love I come to you!

My parents have raised me to be a great Christian. I study hard, I play a lot of sports, I try to follow every teaching from God I can as my Mother and Father have taught me. I am nice to everyone and have even managed to convince some of my friends to get more into Christianity when our friend, Ger died.

However... I have a massive problem. I lust after girls. Constantly. I don't know what to do, the other day I say a pornographic magazine at my friends house. I convinced him to get rid of the thing in case his parents found it (I felt that would be more effective than saying it wasn't right by god). Obviously I saw some of the women inside. My problem is, I cannot stop fantasising about those women and their bodies. I'm scared, I find myself looking at teachers at school, girls in my class and random women in the street. I can't help myself.

My problem is, that not only is this distracting, and not only do I feel guilty about it, and fear from judgement, both from my father, but also by Our Father, my studies and teachings never explain WHY this is so wrong. Why must I resist this temptation? Why has Christianity made this such a bad thing?

If I understand why, I'm sure I can find the right way to pray and cure myself, I just need to understand why this sin... is such a sin? I've looked at all the aspects and relevant verses, but I can't understand why.

Someone, please. Help.
