My life is overwhelming at the moment, filled with challenges regarding my relationship and my faith in Christ as I navigate an LGBTQ lifestyle. I'm facing toxic dynamics in the relationship, and while he claims he’s seeking God, I can’t shake the feeling that he’s leading me to destruction. I don’t blame him for everything, but I’m a mess and desperately need Jesus to save me because I’m deeply unhappy. The idea of being alone and truly walking in faith is both appealing and frightening. I want to resist worldly temptations because I thought that embracing the world would bring happiness, but there’s always an emptiness that can only be filled by Christ. My faith is dwindling, and I feel like the enemy is gaining ground. I say I want Jesus, but I struggle to truly follow Him. I need help and feel lost, with no one to pray for me or share my beliefs.
"The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

It’s difficult to navigate a healthy Christian lifestyle in the modern world. The devil has his hands on modern culture and tries to tempt us with loud distractions — he wants to deafen us from the calm quiet voice of the Lord. Spend time with God as often as you can; read His word, ask Him to help you realize your true worth as His daughter and try to get as close as you can with Him. A strong prayer life is so so important to a good relationship with God. He is your friend and He wants you to talk to Him! If you are struggling with emptiness — whatever choices you have made — I would suggest you watch videos from Ascension Presents on YouTube. They answer a LOT of amazing questions for Christian’s on there!
