>unstoppable intrusive thoughts, some of them are blasphemous to the LORD Jesus Christ, it's something I cannot stop
I can't speak for God, but I have many such intrusive thoughts. I spent the better part of two decades in the internets and have seen more than my share of horrors. Combined with what I assume to be an above average visual memory, every day it's there. Every night when I lay my head down to sleep.

In the end i accepted that they are a part of me and I'm certain that this is the full extent of what i can do to mitigate the negative effects of something I fundamentally can't change about myself. Resisting intrusive thoughts is a fool's errand. Ever try to not think about something? However, if you simply don't let them bother you (acceptance) you're well on your way to finding peace. Simple as, difficult as.

I would recommend philosophy to supplement your religious learnings. A Guide To The Good Life by Irving is where I started. Followed by Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. There are many techniques in stoic philosophy which deal with exactly this sort.

>He knows your heart.
Feeling bad isn't going to make any righteous deity feel good. You are stronger than you know. We all are.
