Helping someone in trouble

Hi,
I was feeling pretty down on Monday night. I missed an opportunity to tell someone in my therapy group that only God could help her in her dire situation. But I froze up because I am the only Christian (that I know of) in the group. Please pray that I gain a stronger love and awareness of God so I will have the courage to repent of this sin. I know that God is always with me, but I don't think my eyes have been completely opened to His love.
And on another note, I had an attack of lust earlier this week when I heard my neighbors having what sounded to be intercourse upstairs. I have repented of this sin, but please pray that I will be protected from this in the future.

brother..
*hugs first off
secondly, i will pray that you grow stronger in love for the Lord...that your passion in Him might become unabondoned, uncultured and unrefined and that the Spirit of the Lord may guide your mouth, your thoughts and your heart.
God bless and keep running the race

Dude, believe me when I say I've been there on both counts. It's tough and this world we live in don't help it in any way shape and or form. But, you've done well to come clean to God and repent. That takes guts to admit you're wrong. Thank you for being open about this. It gives me hope to hear from another fellow male struggling through the same things that I have, and still do sometimes, dealt with. I pray a spirit of boldness and courage over you and a spirit of purity and chastity that you won't be caught in the same traps of the enemy. I pray an open heaven of spiritual courage and protection over you, brother, that our Father may bless you with opportunities to show His love and light to your world. Godbless and Godspeed.

Please continue to pray for me in the areas of increased love and purity towards the Lord God. And thanks for all the prayers so far. They are helping. Although I had another lapse in lust on Sunday, I am now more determined than I've ever been to destroy this evil in me through my faith in Christ. I've reached a new level of hatred for the evil one.

Lust is a tricky thing. God made the opposite sex to be appealing to the other. Sadly, the enemy figured that out and twisted it into a sinful thing that has ensnared so many, including you and me, and continues to do so. That's why out heavenly Father sent his son, to remind us of what true love is and make for us a way out. It's not easy (in fact, I'd have to say we Christians have it the worst as the enemy is trying to deture us from our first love), but He has not forsaken us, nor will he ever. Trust in Him and He will guide you in the paths of rightiousness. I am praying for you. May God bless you beyond all belief, brother!
Peace.

Hi again,
Thanks for your earlier prayers. Please continue to pray for me about my issues of lust. I sinned again last night. It seems to attack me once a week. It feels like I am in a season of a test of faith. Please pray that I mature and persevere through this trial.
I'm praying for all of you as well.

Could you elaborate on what you meant when you said to your friend that only God could help her in her dire situation? Like, what is her situation?
