As most of you know, I have been struggling with my faith, my salvation (I wasn't sure of it) and such lately. Well, last night, I finally had enough of it. I got down and prayed for...I dunno, a little while. I was torn up inside, and so I wasn't entirely peaceful, but deep down inside I felt peace. I told Satan to get behind me. Today, during the church service, it was peaceful, as well.

Let me reiterate that last statement; every Sunday I would feel as if I had messed up and such, and that I wasn't saved. Today, it felt simply as if I needed to improve in that part of my life, not that I wasn't saved.

I feel as if I am out of my pit, finally. Last Wednesday the youth pastor said you could not be saved when you wanted to; only after you realized what a dirty, rotten sinner you were could you be saved. I believe I have done that before, but I got serious last night.

However, I would like you to continue to pray for me. Someone once said, "If you aren't coming out of a storm, you are going into one." What he means by that is we are constantly being tried by Satan, constantly being tempted. God also puts us through trials to strengthen our faith. So, I thank you all for your support, and I ask that you continue to support me as I grow as a child of God.

I'm glad to know that God has given you peace that you are saved. That's partially what the sermon was about at my church today. Salvation is based on our belief in the promises of God. God is good all the time!

2 Corinthians 7:1
Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

We have all been adopted into glorious relationship with the Triune God from the beginning of time. But our salvation comes only from accepting God's love and his sacrifice and repenting of our ways.
That's awesome mate! God Bless.
