I feel as if Brother Wilcox was talking about me. I myself had problem with porn, and everytime I relapsed I hated myself to the point where I had severe depression and thought of the darkest thoughts in my life. I've thought to myself that I had no future, if I can't even get over the lustful video and photos then how would I live my life righteously. I've hated myself, and wanted to just stop living. I thought god hated me and felt SO unworthy that I thought he probably didn't want to hear me and I prevented myself from praying. BUT THIS TALK! gave me the entire insight behind what I was going through and how my Lord thought of me truly. I've watched this talk for about 10th time and still tear up. Thank you so much Brother Wilcox, you have saved my soul from the dark.

Thank you for sharing your feelings! No one is perfect, we all fall short. You are worthy of love and belonging, no matter what you have done or where you have been. We’re never beyond the help of Jesus Christ and His Atonement. This article may provide some good information and encouragement: www.churchofjesuschrist.org/addressing-pornography/why-do-i-feel-so-bad-about-myself?lang=eng. Take care!

Dear friend! You are not alone in those feelings. I love how much Heavenly Father loves and understand us to send messengers to provide love and clarity of his doctrine and thoughts. I think part of the plan of the adversary is to temp us to sin not only that we are not clean but specially to makes us have those terrible feelings he himself experience. His misery loves company. But God and our Savior know that and are always there for us. They know that we have those feelings because we want to do good and be good. They don’t judge us harshly but offer love, charity and companionship as we strive to walk in the path and pick us up when we fall. ❤️ I love my Savior. I am glad this message lifted up your heart ❤️

God is kind, loving and merciful. So proud of you. God will walk with you. We all stumble,dear young man, all your life with something different. Keep the course. Keep trying. This world needs those who have the humility to dust off and try again. God be with you.

If only this talk could have been given over and over for the past twenty years. I pray it will be quoted and quoted again and again. Such a beautiful way to explain repentance. I hope it helped and will continue to help millions of people come into Christ.

Oh watch his talks he is amazing at addressing his talks so clearly and... actually all of our apostles but I am a big fan of his talks. He changed my perspective of life in sooo many ways. I understood the atonement at a personal level. I am grateful for that.

@cesare.guillen4435 2 года назад

I totally agree. I love Elder Wilcox.I can testify personally that he is in tune with the spirit and he is speaking the truth and describing the doctrine in a way the Lord approves. I have personally felt from Elder Wilcox that he is very sincere and loving man. He is a man of God and a talented teacher

One of the best discursantes in the conference, Hitted me in the right spot and it really helps me a lot when he spoke about the persons who are struggling in life but they want to follow Jesus at the same time. I am one of them... My life is a disaster but I still try to be a child of God.

@wolffang471 2 года назад

@RH-fh1rn 2 года назад

Don't give up! Christ has his arms wide open to help you walk through this life. Our testimonies are under construction, and miracles are real through the grace and atonement of Jesus Christ! Like Elder Wilcox says, repentance is a process. Reach out to your family and church leaders for support. God loves you!

@markcavandish1295 2 года назад

Don’t let the church tell you you’re not living right. You do the best you can, but do not let the church make you feel inferior.

I met and worked with this man previously when i was a missionary serving in his ward. He was kind and helped us with whatever we needed. It wasn’t until i was transferred that i found out about his talks. He is 1000% legit and I’m glad to see where he is. Un abrazo

@teammelkerphilippines3620 2 года назад

He is a great man, this is an amazing speech Ive watched it over and over as it speaks so much to me, having spent 2 months living with him in Spain after my twin brother passed, his warm welcoming heart, he and his wife basically saved my life, and brought a lot of peace to my family, I have all of his books on audio and some in physical form, he will always be a part of my heart for what him and his wife helped me through, he is truly a man of our Lord

@shannonsutorius3944 2 года назад

How clear it is that this message was inspired by the Almighty himself?!!! Wow what a powerful, loving, and inspiring message! Our Youth especially needed to hear this. I’m overwhelmed with the reminder and glimpse with just how much we are loved and our divine potentials. We are truly children of God, everyone of us on this earth! This inspires me to be more loving and forgiving to myself and to all my brothers and sisters.

@enderpirate9887 Год назад

I used to have a porn addiction and it was not healthy at all and even to this day I still get the temptations everyday to start the cycle but I try to remain strong everyday and to say no to Satin so that my mind is cleaner I don't stair at a woman's chest as much any more and I am thankful for the blessing of repentance and recovery. I hope more people see this talk because it relates to me so much with all that. For everyone reading this I wish you a wonderful day or night and that you can be blessed in your daily life.

@kendallerickson459 2 года назад

He was my mission president in Chile, and I was a shy kid with not much confidence. He helped me change that. The man would give the biggest hugs and he would make you feel like you were the most important person in his life right then. Truly changed my life, and I always knew he'd be able to reach more people with his message of repentance and hope some day. How lucky we are that he gave this talk, and will be able to directly help members and youth now. "Hoy, en viente anos, y para siempre jamas!"

I needed this I couldn't watch all the conference because I thought God was just not going to talk to me he was just there for the good members. I was feeling so down today because I keep on failing and failing it's been two years since everything started to fall apart in my life and I can't seem to stand up and go for the everything I want and supposed to do but this helped me today I will start if I fall I know I can get up because God is not punishing me for not being perfect but I will ask for his grace to help me overcome all

@BreakOutOfTheAlgorithm 2 года назад

We are in extremely challenging times. 2020 was the most difficult year of my life and I just turned 45. Depression and anxiety are very tricky because they can be a chemical imbalance, environment but most of all the adversary putting thoughts of doubt and unworthiness in our heads that are not true. Thank you for sharing your story and may God continue to be with you. I have a little motto that helps me. I am, an attitude of gratitude with a positive perspective doing the next right thing and giving all the glory to God. I am far from perfect and have struggled with addiction for most of my life but thanks to you the holy Ghost and the atonement I have been able to free myself from so many painful decisions and actions I've made in the past. I need to remind myself each Sunday when I take the sacrament that those mistakes are forgiven. I hope this helps and may God be with you. 🙏

@warriorstudeo188 2 года назад

A mentor and friend of mine sent me this yesterday. I am so grateful they did. I kept crying. "Worthyness is not Flawlessness." Please help me God. I need your grace. Repentance is not a one-time thing, it is a journey. REPEATance! Is something done over and over again. God will help you though this

@starlegends3092 2 года назад

@louisrosas7533 Год назад

This one, in combination with brother Wilcox’s other talk, is so amazing at helping us see the core mechanics of Christ’s atonement. I thought it was interesting how he compared getting spiritual power and grace by making and keeping covenants to driving a car. That same fuel is needed during the whole journey: we ourselves cannot make the car move on our own the whole distance. Only Christ can provide that fuel, that grace. We choose where we go in our lives however, sometimes going down the wrong paths. Recognizing our mistakes, striving for change - repentance - means redirecting our course and returning to the journey that will enable us to reach our ultimate destination.

Seeing how many people “needed” this talk just goes to show it’s decades late, and the church’s history clearly never taught repentance in this way.

@davelarsen9847 2 года назад

Amazingly good talk. No one is perfect but I'm not even in the ball park yet. Too easy to let ourselves be offended when others judge us for having outwardly apparent sins. We must forgive them and then keep striving, keep trying, and keep begging the Lord for help.

@BreakOutOfTheAlgorithm 2 года назад

I love this comment, I can relate and I think most members can. None of us are in the ballpark compared to the savior. However there's no need to beg, just continue to follow his example and try our best to do right things. 🙏☮️❤️
