Hi, I’m Avery, I feel like this doesn’t get talked about as much but as a woman, I struggle with porn. I am ashamed by it, and I was told all my life that it’s normal and fine. I want to get closer to God and it’s taken my childhood away from me. I started masturbating at the age of 6 and starting watching porn at 10. I did t go through any S/A but Satan has had me lusting for a very long time. I am 18 now and struggle with it daily, it is truly like a drug. I ask for prayers and messages of guidance and tips. Thank you!
Hi Avery, thank you for sharing and you’re really not alone in this battle. As a woman, you likely feel isolated, but many women face this same thing. 🫂 I just want to say that God sees you exactly where you are with love and compassion. He doesn’t want you locked in shame; once you confess your sins, He forgives completely. 1 John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Your sins are forgiven, and any shame you feel now is not from God—it’s Satan trying to hold you in your previous sin. Romans 8:1 reminds us, “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” God’s desire is for you to walk in freedom, not to be chained by guilt.🤍 You’re already seeking God, and that’s evidence of His work in you. I’ll be praying for you regularly, and there’s always a lot of people here cheering you on!💪🏻
