A Prayer of Repentance for Lust and Pornography
For when shame after falling makes prayer feel impossible.
When it feels like this
This is the one people find hardest to say out loud. With no one to tell, you stay in it alone, and the longer that lasts the further from God you feel. But the distance is in how it feels, not in where you stand.
An example prayer
LUST · A PRAYER OF REPENTANCE
I come before the God who forgave David the moment he confessed, after hiding his sin had wasted him away — and gave him back his song.
I bring my eyes and my heart to you as they are — unclean. You already know.
When I fall, let me not hide but run straight to you.
Thank you that you do not turn away from those who return to you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
