Listen, GOD, I’m calling at the top of my lungs: “Be good to me! Answer me!” When my heart whispered, “Seek God,” my whole being replied, “I’m seeking him!” Don’t hide from me now! You’ve always been right there for me; don’t turn your back on me now. Don’t throw me out, don’t abandon me; you’ve always kept the door open. My father and mother walked out and left me, but GOD took me in. (Psalm 27:7-9 MSG).
Oh Lord my God! In your deepest and darkest moments, God is saying Erika I am here I love you I forgive you. And even at times all I can I think are God there is no way you can love me or care about me look at what I have done. But that is the reason Jesus went through all the pain He did, so that we don't have to bear our guilt anymore or feel the pain of our sin. The sin is forgiven and our job is to be dependent on God and not sin anymore.
When we overcome sin and go let's say six months and then we start to struggle again and be tempted by satan, and give into that sin what did we overcome. Maybe we weren't being tempted for those 6 months. When you ask God for forgiveness you have to be at a point of humility and hatred for that sin. We will fall at points and we will sin, we are not perfect. But as we love God more it should become easier everyday not to sin. But when we do fall can you really ask for forgiveness and not hate your sin. Hate your flesh? You have to hate it with all you have! God passionately hate sin and even though we are sinners He still loves us! How amazing is that! Turn from your sin and knock on His door and physically cry out to Him and tell Him how much you need Him!!!! We all need Him deeply!
