How many times have we all been weak in our faith and done things we really do not mean. I fully admit that I have been failing many times and need Jesus more than ever now. I have done things I should not have done at times and as a Christian feel as though I have not been good enough.
I fully admit I need the prayers of all my brothers and sisters in Christ and now with all of the other problems in the world wonder if each of mine own failures have contributed to the bad mood in general.
Please pray for me to seek the things that are good in the eyes of the Lord Jesus and ask him to help me over come my weaknesses and heal all of the pain I have caused between myself and others. Especially those friends whom my mouth have gotten me into trouble with as I know I brought some of these things on myself. I made mistakes and I know now how sorry I truly am for but I also know Jesus will forgive but I also need strength from my own brothers and sisters in Christ to help rebuild things I have failed in my own weak human state. I ask Jesus to forgive me for my human weaknesses but I also ask for your prayers that I will completely over come all of this with the help of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I truly believe its one thing to ask for the prayers but I know that my confession of my own sin is the most important thing I can do among my fellow Christians.
I know also that a lot of friends are still friends but that it was I who failed because of depression and other problems. I do not come here acting as if I have never failed but come here knowing how much I have failed my saviour. Please pray for me as I pray for those of you who need my prayers. Only prayer to Jesus Christ to the Father can truly forgive all that has hurt and heal with the blood of the Lord Jesus.
May Jesus always be with you and thank you all for your understanding.
