CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

please pray for me! i've been getting temped a lot lately and a lot of times i fail. i don't want to be the old me anymore, but sometimes that me comes out! please pray for me! thanks.

-chris-

Will do c.t. Remain strong, God will protect you. I will pray for you.

will do.

you got it! if you ever wanna discuss it, you can always pm me. ^_^

Temptation is hard sometimes, but don't give up, okay?

Proverbs 24:16a:
"A righteous man may fall seven times and rise again..."

James 1:2
"My brethren, *or sisteren ^_^* count it all joy when you fall into various trials,"

thanks, you guys. i need your prayers immencely.

Will do Chris. Been there, done that (still do that), hate my flesh. Man I hate the old me. Only by keeping our focus on the Lord, and constantly praying for God's help can we hope to overcome it. I think that it is easier to stay focused on God when we set aside a daily quiet time for scripture and prayer. Know that I'm praying for you.

thanks kevin. i need as many as i can get(prayers).

I know this temptation all too well and it does always come back. Each of us has to face their own demons. I will be praying for you Chris.

Still praying; will pray extra. Take care, and God bless.

i want this to stop! i want it to stop so badly! i hate this so much! i hate how it makes me(not just me but everyone)! i wish it was never created! i wish it would all just go away!

Yeah it makes us think of people as just objects which is very degrading, however, i don't think it will ever go away. The fact is porn really sells and i think it will always sell. We're all in this fight together. With each other and God we can beat this.

a while ago(like about a few weeks ago) i had no rememberance of the feelings it gave. but then things in my life started to happen and i started to not care about anything or anyone. i started to doubt God...BIG mistake! but i just didn't care anymore. then during that day of not caring i saw something wondered what it was saw what it was but i didn't care so i clicked on it. all those feelings that i had forgot about all came back. i came back to reality and thought about what i did and from then on the addiction came back. it's the same thing as a drunk. they can go to rehab and come out clean but once they get a dose of what they've been away from for so long, the wanting starts to come back. yes, i'm addimting that sometimes i do want it but God always tries to keep it away but i say i want it so he says, "fine! have it! but you'll be sorry!" *hangs head* and i am sorry. that's why i want this to stop! i don't want to be like that!!

Yeah God loves us so much that He's willing to let us do anything we want even if what we want to do is sin. I try to think about that when I'm looking at Hentai. It definately helps. While i watch a hentai movie i pray to God and just kinda have a conversation with Him about the hentai and why im watching it. What i enjoy about it. It helps keep my mind occupied.

it doesn't work for me. sometimes i doubt that he's not there and then i don't care yet i still get that little voice that tells me to stop but i just ignore it and keep on doing what i was doing. i'm not in the best of moods at the moment. i'm hating myself right now. i feel like hitting myself. i seem to do that a lot. so anyways, it just seems like nothing works. i mean i'll stop take a moment to cry and come back to God but then it's like 2 days later or a little more that i go back to it! i hate it! i hate it so much! i want this time to be the end of it! i don't want to go back! i don't want to have those feelings! i want it all gone! i want it to end!

I really dont know what more i can say. Everyone here at CAA is here to support you and im sure your boyfriend supports you in this as well. Try to remember that you're never alone.

I've already prayed for you and ill continue to pray. I hope we can all beat this.

you know what? you just made me laugh. i find it funny that you think i have a boyfriend. i think that if i did i probably wouldn't have this problem...but what do i know. anywho, that little comment you just made made me a little happier...odd though, cuz ya think it would make me mad cuz i don't have a boyfriend. i mean i have a lot of guy friends, i just don't have a "boyfriend." i thank you for your prayers. i think i'm well enough now to use smilies once again.

This makes the best sense]While i watch a hentai movie i pray to God and just kinda have a conversation with Him about the hentai and why im watching it. What i enjoy about it. It helps keep my mind occupied.[/QUOTE]You're kidding, right? This is just perverse. Somehow, while you're being sick and perverse you talk to God about how you feel? Have you ever thought maybe God might want you to turn off the hentai movie and stop and talk to Him, whether than thinking He's just some second-hand conversation you have while you're having your fleeting moment?

Sorry, Chris, but this is really bugging me and sorry if I've taken your thread off course. I will still be praying for you.

it's quite alright chloe and i thank you for your prayers as well. i need them...a lot.

I know we've had our disagreements in the past TNC, but i think we've all got our own ways of dealing with things. Sorry that my own method offends you. I see the problem isn't hentai itself but the way it makes me view women. Ie see them as objects. If i talk to God i can start to see the hentai girls as people more easily even as they're being portrayed as objects.

I do try hard to not watch hentai, but when i do falter i find it useful to talk to God. I personally view God as a best friend who loves me. God does love uis and that's why He allows us to do as we desire.

I'm still praying for you Chris and im glad you're there for her too True_Noir_Chloe.

You know I'm praying for you, Chris.

thank you.

Don't worry about the old you, c.t, That part of you is dead. You don't have to worry about that little so-and-so anymore. Saten wants to make you think that that part of you is still alive, with power over you, but belive me when I say this, THAT PART OF YOU IS NO MORE! YE HA!

umm...

just to remind you, hentai is absolutely considered wrong, biblically, morally and on these boards promotion of it is not at all tolerated no matter what the justification. and while you're not outright saying it's okay, it's implied. instead of praying to God while you watch the hentai, you should reach over, turn it off and THEN pray. God is your Father, the least you could do is turn the TV off and talk to Him with no distractions. would you talk to an actual person while you're sitting there getting off? I hope not. God deserves your respect.

i need more prayers. i say that i rededicated my life to Christ but yet i still get weak. like thirty minutes ago i was weak...and i fell into that weakness. i hate it when i do that! i'm sorry everyone. i'm sorry God.

i will not give up!

Amen. You go girl! God's going to help you through it. Just keep turning to Him when you need strength.

You have been and will remain in my prayers.
