This is such a testimony builder for me. I ...Wow! This is such a testimony builder for me. I completely understand where she is coming from (on the repentence thing), it's so hard to make it through the week without partaking of the sacrament! <br /><br />I don't know your name, Sister, but I've been in your shoes too. It was my ex-boyfriend who kept trying to text me, and IM me, and post things on my facebook (and texted me pictures too...so I feel your pain). I was still very new in the church so I wasn't as proactive about it as you have been (way to go!), but I did realize eventually that it had to stop. I told him to stop, and things slowed down, but it took months of me just ignoring him for him to finally get the picture (no pun intended :P)that I didn't want it. <br /><br />I agree with Bro Jo; get adult help. I was 20 years old when it happened to me and I still felt like I couldn't handle it. I know your kind heart doesn't want to hurt this boy because he's your friend, but you have to protect yourself. This is a constant source of temptation that is just going to make it harder for you to get back to where you need to be. 99% of the time you will not feel the slightest inclination to act on it, but Satan doesn't work like that. He waits for that one time when you are feeling weak to strike. DO NOT give him the opportunity. You are a beloved daughter of Heavenly Father, and He knows what is truly in your heart. He loves you so very much, and is just waiting to help you through this.<br /><br />Stay strong, Sister!<br /><br />AmandaAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263642438312412446noreply@blogger.com
