I have the same problem of having to confess the same sin over and over and feeling hopeless, ashamed to have to tell the priest I did it again. I'll pray that you and I both find something really helpful in beginning to get the better of our respective sins.
Thank you so much. I'll keep you in my prayers as well. If you ever need to talk about your struggles, feel free to PM me.  |

You are most certainly in my prayers.
Please pray for me as well. I suffer from the same problem of becoming discouraged.
Just remember that God tempers our fidelity in the crucible of perpetual failure.
Whenever any of us make it to be in the presence of God for all eternity, none of us will have deserved it.

I recommend each morning read Ephesians 6:10-20. As you do picture yourself actually putting on the shield of faith, the gospel shoes, and the belt of righteousness. This can especially be fruitful with a prayer partner.

Did you think of that yourself? Wow. That's very good. Perpetual failure also tempers our pride. I'm a member of this perpetual failures club, too. I'm always confessing the same things.  |
