I was formerly signed up as redeemed but I couldn't get logged in so now I am Journey. I would appreciate prayer today as I am overwhelmed with all the issues involved in my recovery. I have been addicted to fantasy and M for 30 years, and have struggled with the temptation to have affairs. I thank God that He has met me where I am at and has helped me to not be too ashamed to get help. I just saw that if I didn't get help I would be heading down the same path of sexual addiction in increasing "doses" as many have described in these posts.
Specifically today pray as I am battling self-contempt. It seems to have such a hold on my heart and it clouds my mind.
Thanks.

Heavenly Father, I pray that you will lift up our sister Journey as she struggles with self-contempt. I thank you for the promises in your Word that assure us that when we confess our sin that you are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, and that there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. I ask that you would break the hold of the enemy on Journey's mind, freeing her to experience the clean heart you have created in her. In Jesus name, amen.

| Thanks for your prayers, please don't stop. I had an encouraging experience of hearing from God, I was awake in the night, thinking of all the issues, thinking about how I still have so much temptation, of how far I am from figuring out what pure intimacy is all about, and I just cried out to God that I really do want to learn and grow, even tho I don't see progress. And suddenly His still small voice came to me and He said "That is enough for now." meaning the fact that I SOOOO want to learn and grow is all He required of me at that moment. I somehow knew He wanted me to rest in His grace and let Him work--He can do it and not me by my own stewing or whatever.
