i was sleeping around with random woman, drinking copious amounts of alcohol, & abusing party drugs up until i almost died. After that i became extremely religious and quit everything but looking back what i was doing WAS terrible and i still feel a lot of shame and guilt for who i was back then so this sentiment resonates in a way
Personally before I found Jesus I was incredibly anxious and depressed. I couldn’t deal with any of my emotions and would cut myself because I thought that I deserved pain. A few weeks ago I was listening to something about who god is because I wanted to learn more and I have never felt so loved in my entire life. In an instant I felt like I could see clearly and I just started bawling my eyes out. I pray that everyone gets to experience gods love and mercy because I don’t think I’d be here.
