I am 22 years old, a follower of Christ, 319 pounds, and struggling with my faith. Starting with the basics, I accepted Christ at the age of 5 and at this point have grown steadily in my faith. I would like to think I have a strong group of friends who encourage me in my walk with Christ. The problem is the insecurities that constantly swarm through my head. I constantly questions my friendships and my faith. Many of these questions come from both my issues of self confidence and a sin I have struggled with as long as I can remember, same-sex attractions.
I hope that by posting this I can work through some of these issues, maybe hear others thoughts on how to grow closer to Christ and farther from the sins that are holding me in bondage.
Here is what I know:
1. I have been saved by Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
2. I am not truly in bondage from my sin because I have been set free by Christ.
3. In the end I must learn to throw all of my anxieties on Christ, I just don't know how yet.
Thank you for reading
