hey there even after being a Christian for many years I have done a lot of messed up. three marriages three children whom I adore but they all have different dads, confusion, fear and guilt have taken the placr of when I once was free and believed, I believe in Jesus and I know he died for me and I know what it's like to walk so close to him but now I feel so lost and separated and I've asked for years and for restoration on forgiveness.... sometimes I think I am forgiven and back strong with Jesus and others im from scared to death I'm not and fooling myself. I need someone to pray for me and for my children that I haven't screwed them up and God.restore to them all that they deserve. all 3 of my children and God to help me and my husband grow and my kids in Jesus, I just don't want to be like this anymore. in Jesus name Amen and please pray for my lost family members and really all the lost in the world

Hi God's Godsgirl,

Don let the accuser spoil your joy in Christ..he's tell you that you can't find peace in Christ, he'll remind you of all your sin's.. but don't believe it..if you have repented here's what we know of God:

1 John 1:9

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

Believe in the promises and faithfulness of God, put your past where it belongs..in the past, and now live in the present and look to the future. Yes it may be a bumpy ride life isn't easy..but you have Jesus like a shepherd walking you through it.

Your kids may have different dads, but that can't be changed, however you are their mum and its upto you to teach them that they actually do have one father indeed.. God our Father in heaven... A mothers earnest prayers on her knees for her children are the one of the greatest things you can do for them. I know its hard but don't let life's struggles rob you of your joy...fight for it...believe God at his word...repent and he is Faithful and Just.

I think we can all agree that when trials come God can feel distant... but its at these times God wants you to lean on him the most...lean,pray and watch what he does in your life...it may not be in our time..but he will bring you through.. Sin can also us separate.. God will always bring his children to that place where they realise they need to repent and change course.. but he is there and will do it with you....

Keep your eyes fixated on Jesus and His glory..thats where you will find peace when the breakers of the stormy sea of life are washing over you.

Anyhow praying for you.

It's never too late to turn around :).

Read and study God's Word, pray, fellowship with believers....all of these will strengthen you in your relationship with Christ. Take your children to Sunday school....this is a wonderful place for them to learn about Jesus!

Praying for you...wisdom, guidance, love, and forgiveness :).

Hey Godsgirl,

You can't change the past, but God will forgive your past if you confess your sins and repent. So, if you have asked for forgiveness and repented, you are forgiven. Period. Don't mistake conviction for condemnation. We all sin all the time, unfortunately. When we do, God will convict us of it and then we repent. Through the grace of God we are forgiven. Satan will condemn us and try to convince us that all is lost, that there is no escape clause. There is a big difference!

Surround yourself with Christian brothers and sisters and your life will be significantly easier to manage. Also pray and stay in the word. (There are many very good bible studies and devotional sites online if you really don't know where to start.)

Bless you, Godsgirl.

I'm just a bit confused. You say after being a Christian for many years, you had 3 marriages and children with different fathers. Is this after you became a Christian? If so, then this is truly your sin in the first place. You must repent to God for these marriages in sin, and for having different fathers to your child. Without repenting for this sin, sorry to say, you will not have the peace or forgiveness from God. No Christian should have so many different marriages or different fathers to their children. This is not the work of the Holy Spirit. So, I would advise you first to get on your knees and ask God for forgiveness, then you can look to Him for guidance.
