Hi.<\/p>\n
I was on your church’s website and saw a question posted by a man who committed a sexual sin. I recently committed the same sin and the advice and the scripture you shared with me were also a great help to me. It helped me remember that God is not finished with me and wants to help me overcome my sin. Thankfully, this was the first time I committed this sin and with God’s help, it will be the last. I have already set up an appointment with a Christian counselor and have resources to help me. If you could, please say a prayer for me for this.<\/p>\n
Thank you for your commitment to God. May He bless you as you continue His work.<\/p>\n\t
I’m glad the website was useful to you.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
