Dear Jordy,
Be of good cheer because "Greater is He who is in you than he who is the world". When Paul was struggling with an issue that he had that he had,"a thorn in his flesh", God said to him "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness" 2cor 12:9
Therefore Jordy, even if you feel weak, trust Jesus, who is able to do more than we can ever imagine. Trust Him and give it to Him. You may be the instrument that God will use to bring even your parents to the cross of Jesus. It is just child like faith as little as a mustard seed that you need to remove this mountain before you, with Jesus' help. I will pray for you.
Dear Jordy,
Stay strong, God is listening, He does hear you. Jesus is praying for you;just as He prayed for peter, when He told peter that Satan was seeking to separate Him from Jesus; but Jesus said He has prayed for him. that his faith does not falter. and that after Peter sees his weaknesses and comes back to Jesus; then He will understand and be able to inspire those in the Faith. (My paraphrase, to scripture Luke 22:31,32. be blessed Jordy, then you will be a blessing to others. with Love in Christ Jesus. DS. :)
your last comment, "I'm afraid of my parents" what exactly, if I may ask; did you mean?
Dear Jordy,
I struggled with this same thing until I read Romans 7 and 8. I am so glad that I do not walk in condemnation any longer and there is nothing I have to 'do' to inherit eternal life in Christ- He has done it all, and I just trust Him that He is not a liar. That whatever He said -He will do. These verses of Paul's helped me become more Christ-conscious and not so sin(or me!) conscious! And to realize that when He cried on the cross, 'IT IS FINISHED!' He meant it! I will be praying for you. I have been in the same place, and understand the pain of where you are. Christ Jesus is the answer.
