Give thanks to the Lord, our God and King

I'm Maria. :) I'm 23. I'm a servant of Christ. I'm here to pray for anyone that needs it.

“As for me, I will always have hope; I will praise You more and more.”‬‬

Psalm 71:14

I’m already 25 years old but it seems that my future is still a blur.

but today, God reminded me of my devotion to this verse “But don’t be so concerned about perishable things like food. Spend your energy seeking the eternal life that the Son of Man can give you.” - John 6:27

May we be always reminded of what matter most.

Be still my heart.

If you are a woman who struggles with pornography/masturbation: YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Reblogging cause what I have to say is too long to comment.

@quicklyseverebird I see your point, but if no one stands up on this issue who will? There are people who think they’ll never overcome this and have no idea how to. They think they’re alone in this and that no one understands. We are told that it’s a “man’s problem” when women struggle with it as well; leaving women feeling like there’s something wrong with them because “women don’t have that problem”.

The truth is women struggle with it as well, but we sweep it under the rug. We don’t talk about it. To do such a thing would be shameful and unheard of, because like I’ve acknowledged, “only men struggle with this.”

There are people who will abuse the knowledge of women struggling with pornography, I understand. But I’d rather stand up and talk about it than hide it all away. I’d rather be the one to start something, anything, that will set a spark for people to realize “I am not alone in this, I can overcome.”

Trying to beat this alone is not helpful. Like said, there are little to no resources to help women who struggle with this. No support groups etc. We keep it to ourselves because society more or less tells us to. But I know there are people out there who are wishing someone understood and knew what they’re going through. People out there who wish they had someone to confide in. I know I am not alone in this and that through Christ and the fellowship/prayers of one another we can all beat this.

Holy is the Lord revealed before my eyes

And my burning heart can scarcely take it in

As I behold Your beauty with unworthy eyes

The only song my soul can find to sing

Is Hallelujah, my King

The only way you can find you, is to find Jesus.

Staying close to God’s Word is what gives us strength to run away from temptation.

You will spend more time in the afterlife. Do not focus too much on building up treasures here on earth.

Sometimes I feel like the most lonely person in the world. I’m in one of those seasons where I feel worthless. Truthfully, I feel like I’ve been in this season for months. I try all of these things that i think I will find joy in, like going on trips, hanging out with friends, even going to therapy. And yet, i still feel empty. I ask myself what I’m longing for? What is my soul craving? And the answer has always been You. Why do I keep forgetting how much You love me and care for me? Why do I keep forgetting what You did for me on the cross? I love You. And You love me. And that is enough to fill my soul.
