Trying tondo good but evil represents itself?…?
I am a 15-year-old female who has made a lot of mistakes over the past three years. The main issue has been my disobedience and dishonoring of my parents. I’ve been trying to change and do the right thing, but it feels like my efforts are never acknowledged. Somehow, even when I try to do good, it ends up being perceived as sinful. And when I make one mistake, no matter how many good things I’ve done, the focus is always on that one mistake.
I’ve done some research about Paul in the Bible and his struggles with sinful nature, but I couldn’t find a solution to help myself change. Now, I’m in a situation where my parents are considering disowning me, and I don’t want to live with this kind of relationship for the rest of my life.
Please help me figure out what I should do first to mend this problem!

It is going to be hard to change the old habits. What you do is start the new ones and work hard on them and the old ones will die. However, you have established yourself as being someone your parents cannot count on doing the right thing, so that will take longer and you have to have patience because you created that monster.
If your a Christian? Pray to God for Help. Now if your not a Christian? Become one, Find a Nondenominational Church and Join it. There you will get all the help you need !!
Only Jesus Christ can help with type of problem. If you already know Jesus, draw close to Him and He will draw close to you and help you.
If you do not yet know God, do this just as you are, without pretense, in truth and He will help.
