I Want to be Free

I Want to be Free

I am a young pastor from the Philippines and I need advice and prayer when it comes to my sex life.

Since I was a young boy I am exposed to sexual abuse by my cousins and friends. I grew up under the bondage of homosexuality. My family and the church where I belong to do not know about my situation. I believe that because I am a pastor, I need to keep it to myself and deal with it alone. I have tried many times to resist the temptations but I always fail.

I am still pastoring a church and active in the Lord's service but I am strugling with this sin.

I feel guilty everytime I remember my sins. My life is stil in bondage. Please I need some advice and prayer.

It's been said that sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in life. For if God would allow us to go through life without obstacles, we would not be as strong as we could be.

It takes courage to know oneself. It is not that easy to acknowledge our weaknesses and struggles with sin. Isn't it wonderful to know that God also sees them all and yet He doesn't condemn us? Yes, He understands us. Ever loving and faithful, He always ushers us to His throne of grace where we will find help in time of need. All we have to do is to humble ourselves, confess our sins to Him and repent. Christ's sacrifice on Calvary is sufficient and enough to cleanse us and to give us freedom from sin's slavery.

In Section 4.32 of Book of Hope, Jesus talked about the kind of freedom that He wants us to have. Read it and experience Christ's liberating power!
