    Hi people,My name Kostas and I am a Orthodox Christian.I have been Baptisted since birth but only really tried to follow Gods way since two years ago and to understand life and were I went wrong.As all of us I sin and there has been a few sins that I have been doing since birth and even though I try hard now to follow Gods ways and believe ,I still turn back to these old habits.Thats it isnt it that they are habits.If you look at most of the things in our lives they are mostly habits and I believe thats how the devil catches us in his net.I have noticed a few things on my journey,one is that if you keep your mine on God,that means to keep praying,reading scripture and so forth its helps massively to stop old ways Try not to think to much about the things you do that are wrong because the more you focus your attention on something the stronger it becomes thats why you just watch and pray but dont do your head in what you just did that is bad.If you notice when you sin you feel bad and you say to yourself ,oh I cant pray now because I just sinned and I am not worthy to ask God and pray to him for forgiveness but thats were the Devil comes in with his tricks to make you think that way.You must do the opposite if you want to stay focused on God and for him to be there for you when you fall because you will fall many times till you reach your goal.I read once that a very Holy elder of the dessert said once he was asked what he does in his cell all day and he said “I pray and I fall ,I pray and I fall and thats how it is always”.
    The reason I believe and from my own experience little as it is that you will feel the difference between sinning and turning to God ,you will say” I much prefer when I m close to God how its feels and how my life is compared to when I turned from him and sin”.God allows this to happen for you to make the chose and see the difference.You will find Gods way is always best. God Bless you all and I hope to chat again!:laugh: :)
