Hello!
My name is Ian, I’m 18 years old.
I’ve struggled with pornography since I was 12, and I found God about a year ago. Recently, I underwent a change in attitude, and began striving harder towards a relationship with God. I’m glad to say I’ve been porn free for almost 2 full months. However, I have still found myself still struggling with lustful thinking, and my imagination often takes me to the place porn used to. I’ve encountered issues presented where I see an image online or I just start thinking about it, then I pray and ask for guidance, and still end up finding myself acting on those lustful thoughts through sin - though thankfully, without using Porn. I’m wondering if anyone has any ideas or perspectives they’d want to share on overcoming sexual sin! One thing I think I’d like to change in how I attack it this time around is read more scripture, and spend less time in my room where boredom can inspire these thoughts.
Thank you all, and God bless!!!
