In other words, my mind was saying "You might as well not do youtube if you can't watch your favorite thing." Make more sense?

I have had instances where I know that God placed a conviction in me. I have had to make decisions about things whether I felt conviction or not. These I had to base on the principles of Scripture. God has dealt with me about some youtube content. However, I still enjoy some clips, and listening to preaching that is there.
I take time to pray if I am not sure if something is from God or myself. I have found that if I am struggling with something like you have described, it is generally God leading me in places that my flesh is not comfortable going. However, it is always worth it. There is nothing that you will give up that God will not more than make worth it. Eventually you wonder how you ever needed to have what you gave up.
