Thank you all for your concern and encouragement means a lot.. i honestly have no idea how this happen, it's just depression with everyday life had me bad and it's like the devil just.. sneak back in bad influences in my life and i feel terrible about it... i feel also ashame to even ask for forgiveness..
Look brother, God didn't bring you this far to leave you, He is too merciful for that. See, being a Christian doesn't mean you won't fall, being a Christian means Jesus will always be there when you do. Sometimes God brings us through troubling waters not to drown us, but to clense us. This life is about growing in faith, and one of the best ways to grow in faith is go through trials and tests. See, Paul knew crystal clear what this was about, he told us in Romans 5:3-4 that we exult in our tribulations because it brings perseverance, and perseverance proves character; and proven character, hope. Hope doesn't disappoint. The devil is very crafty at making you feel like your guilty of something, he wants to shatter that faith. But guess what? Isn't that what Job went through? And Jesus? And Paul? It's actually a worthy worthy place to be, because you're actually being put to the test for Jesus. That's honorable! That's so highly honorable, it strengthens your faith when you lean your full trust in God through it all. What did God do before Job suffered? He bragged to Satan about how faithful he was! When you go through any situation that may seem like your on the wrong path, God might be up there bragging, that's my son!
But look, now if your going through anything that is not godly and you are feeling convicted of something you're doing. That's blessed as well! Not that you're sinning, but that God is merciful to give you such a conviction. See, the only time you should worry about losing salvation, is of your conviction is gone. But usually people that lose conviction don't care. Brother, you're far from that. Correction is wisdom, without accepting correction, we go astray. Holy Ghost is moving in you brother! Stay strong and seek the Lord for anything you may have sinned or going through. It may seem hard, but God isn't going to reject his child who needs help. Summit to Him and His will, that's the key. And when you ask anything in His name, always believe that it has come to pass, that's faith. And hope is awaiting for something to happen, we all need hope.
