"Too Far Gone"

I know that I have never not believed in my beliefs...they have never changed. Of course there have been times I have been more spiritual in life or had a stronger testimony compared to another point of time... but my basic beliefs were always there. Even when I was hitting rock bottom and not feeling worthy of the life I wanted and believed in...I believed everyone else was worthy of it and its blessings and encouraged them to make the right choices (obviously not by example).
I knew that Jesus Christ had already suffered for my sins, I just had to ask for his help and forgiveness....I had a testimony of that...I was encouraging others to partake on occasion, but I was carrying around so much guilt because I did have a testimony that I could not forgive myself nor dare ask for forgiveness.
Now... there was something that happened in my life that I could not control that led me to become very depressed and make choices I would not have before that incident... I soon realized my life had quickly spiraled out of control and then felt "too far gone," I believed I had made my choice and because of being acted upon and then acting for myself afterward that I had to live with that. It was a never ending cycle of a downward spiral...but I was wrong...I was worthy of the same forgiveness as you are.... there is no such thing as "too far gone"...that is Satan's game.


Remember the Lord tells us that "he who has repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I the Lord, remember them no more." (D&C 58:42)
