hey people my friend trusted me a lot by telling me a huge secret n i promised her in the prayer hall not to let it out... but i actually disclosed it to a very close friend of mine who i trust... i cant get over the guilt...Will God ever forgive me???? I did it deliberately but i didnt have the time to think through... What do i do??? I promised to God that i'll never ever do such a thing again but what about something that i already did??? I also cannot get over the fact that im not trustworthy n i feel tempted to tell my best friends bout the secrets!!!

U should definitely have to resist the temptation of wanting 2 tell ur best friend about ur other friend's secret...U should know that ur friend trusted you and you should not have told ur best friend about it...but what's done is done n u can't change it so don't go on thinking about this all the time and making urself feel worse...The only thing u can do rite now is 2 make sure in 1 way or another that ur best friend does not let out that particular secret...I'm sure God will forgive you...Although u did it deliberately u never had time 2 think thru rite...And never ever repeat ur mistake...

Dear crazychic,
Yes God will forgive you- but it seems you do have a responsibility to make things right. It seems that you've already asked God for forgiveness but still feel guilty about it. One way to alleviate your guilt would be to make things right with the person who you sinned against. Let this friend know that you disclosed the secret to someone else and that you didn't mean to-- and hopefully she will forgive you for it- though you should understand also that this person can be hurt by your actions and it may hurt your relationship with them a little bit. But it just depends on how mature they are in Christ- we all make mistakes and asking one another for forgiveness is a growing experience in Christ.
You should also pray and ask God to keep you from gossiping. There is a reason that secrets are secrets and i think God wants to use you to encourage and pray for other people- but you have to be trustworthy for people to open up their lives to you.
Hope that helps. Kindly,
Nickster

God will definately forgive u, but i'll ask u tell everything that u told to your other friend, n request your other friend n take a promise that she will not disclose to anybody else ever, say SORRY to both of your friends, n request them to forgive u...
They 'll definately forgive u, no need to be guilty once u hav done what i said... So just do it!!!

God forgives everyone for everything. He forgives smalls sins like stealing candy from your mommy's purse, all the way up to mass murder and beyond.
Don't worry. I know you feel guilty, but just know that God forgives everyone. God isn't out to get you.
God is your heavenly father, He loves all his children, and forgives them no matter what. You already did all you can, and all you need to do: admit what you did was wrong, and just trust and know that God forgives you with all His heart.

It's perfectly normal 2 feel guilty but God is merciful. He can surely forgive u. He can n He would forgive each n every one of our sins. Believe n have faith! remember His precious blood which cleanse all our sins! Pray hard!Don't ever hesitate to seek Him each day! Do not let ur sins come into ur way to enjoy n be close 2 God!

God forgives those who have faith in Him.
Maybe you should tell your friend you told your other friend the secret, and make your other friend promise not to spread it. That way, your friend won't find out from someone else that you've been spreading. Your friend will be more likely to trust you.

there's nothing wrong with letting out a secret... secrets a meant to be told... if u feel guilty now, its okay, after doing lots of wrong things... u lose Ur conscience... but if u ask for forgiveness from God, and repent.... He will forgive you...

please admit to the friend telling you secrets that you hv another close friend who you trust very much. tell her she can continue to trust you or she can stop telling you secrets. let her know that you felt you needed to talk things over with the other close friend and TELL HER THAT YOU FEEL BAD AND THAT YOU HAVE ASKED GOD FOR FORGIVENESS AS WELL. ASK AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE! YOU HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN MY FRIEND. i have prayed that you overcome this situation easily.
