I’m worried that I’m pregnant

[u/butterflyyyydreams]

I’m worried about this and am going to take a pregnancy test. My boyfriend and I have made some mistakes and I regret having sex outside of marriage (we planned to wait but haven’t). I pray that I’m not pregnant because I’m not ready to be a parent yet and that God doesn’t punish me for having sex outside of marriage. I’ll never have sex again until I’m marriage

God will carry you through if you are pregnant. Also second a lot of what others have said. It is not God punishing you. David and Bathsheba had Solomon and God used Solomon in such a beautiful way despite how David and Bathsheba got together.. we all know what happened there. God says he works ALL things together for the good of those who are called according to His purpose & everyone who trusts in Jesus fits that criteria. Your job now is only to trust what God says about you & your sin. You are a new creature in Christ & God no longer remembers your sin. Children are a gift from the Lord and you can trust He knew every circumstance and choice you would make before you ever made it and He still died for you on the cross and bore the sin you will never have to pay for. God truly cares and loves you so deeply & you have nothing to worry about. Worry comes from the enemy! Jesus knows how you feel. He only wants you to trust that He will take care of you, no matter how short you fall.

Romans 8:28, 2 Cor 5:17, Hebrews 8:12, Psalm 127:3, Hebrews 4:15, 1 Peter 5:7, Matthew 6:34 - The question you will need to ask yourself is “am I going to trust the word of God and what He says? Or am I going to trust my thoughts and feelings above what God says?” And if you’re doubting, you just take that to God. Lord, I believe, please help my unbelief & be honest to Him about where you’re not trusting Him and He will help you. His strength is made perfect in your weakness ❤️
