Jesus and Being in a relationship with a child out of wedlock
Hi, I am 27 years old and I currently live with my son and his mother. We are together but are not married. I had accepted Jesus years ago but Along the span of our relationship I started taking being a Christian more seriously. I went to church more, I fasted occasionally, changed my music, and even brought myself to tell my son's mother lets wait till marriage to continue having sex. As you can imagine, the last change was and is immensely difficult and challenging. I was able to manage it for a long while. But her and I still have many problems, we've even broken up with each other for almost a year (but was still living in the same house). We reconciled but are now, again, engaging in sexual acts with each other. I now feel like my spiritual focus is disrupted, guilty, and like God may withdraw blessing for us returning to this way of life. My son's mother is a Christian, but she is young and doesn't think having sex before marriage is that bad of a thing since we have a child already and she also feels its impossible given that we live in such close quarters. What should I do?
