Your Question:
Why is this happening to me when I've been a good person?
Answer:
As I reflect on my own life, I've come to realize that I've been struggling with various issues, including sex, dipsomania, and nervousness. Despite being a pastor and a good person in the eyes of others, I've been tripped up by these issues. I've always believed that my niceness is my own doing, but I'm starting to see that I need something more. I've been reading about the concept of Christ and how he can help me overcome these struggles. I've been thinking about why I've been struggling with these issues, and I've come to the realization that I've been trying to be good on my own terms. I've been trying to be a good person, but I haven't been seeking God's help. I've been relying on my own strength and willpower, but it's not working. I'm starting to see that I need to surrender myself to God and ask for his help. I need to recognize that I'm not good on my own, and that I need Christ to help me overcome my struggles. As I look at my life, I'm starting to see that I've been living a lie. I've been pretending to be something I'm not, and it's been exhausting. I've been trying to be perfect, but I'm not perfect. I'm a sinner, just like everyone else. I need to stop trying to be good on my own and start seeking God's help. I need to recognize that I'm not good, and that I need Christ to make me good. I'm starting to see that this is the only way I can truly be free from my struggles and live a life that's pleasing to God.
