Hi I am a young college student who has been a christian for 4 years. I have recently been tested in my faith from myself and outside sources. I have been failing and giving into temptation, I am looking for a way of renewing my walk with God and just trying to get on track and keep on it. I know Christ died for my sins and guilt is not of God, but I can't help but feel guilty....any thoughts?

Combat those feelings with what you know to be true. When you begin to feel guilty, say to yourself, out loud if possible, what you said in your post, that Jesus died for your sins and now there is Grace. Keep scriptures close at hand that reflect this. Reinforce the truth and the lie will have no legs to stand on.

God bless you.

When you are feeling guilty, just pray to God and tell him how you are feeling! Let him know what your thoughts are and ask him to give you a sense of peace about it and for you to forgive yourself. There are some things in life that when you run out of words, all you can do is pray for guidance and hope. I hope this helps! Great to have you here and you are in our prayers

This song might help too!!!

Doing the study is a fantastic way of getting back on track too.

Praying for you.
