Looking at his marriage now, Bieber said he and Baldwin are “just creating these moments for us as a couple, as a family, that we’re building these memories.”

“And it’s beautiful that we have that to look forward to. Before, I didn’t have that to look forward to in my life,” he added. “My home life was unstable. I didn’t have a significant other. I didn’t have someone to love. I didn’t have someone to pour into.”

The musician also credits his faith as another important factor in dealing with his struggles.

“He is grace,” Bieber toldGQ. “I came to a place where I just was like, ‘God, if you’re real, I need you to help me, because I can’t do this on my own. Like, I’m struggling so hard. Every decision I make is out of my own selfish ego.'”

“So I’m just like, ‘What is it that you want from me? You put all these desires in my heart for me to sing and perform and to make music—where are these coming from?” Bieber added. “Why is this in my heart? What’s the point? What is the point of everything? What is the point of me being on this planet?'”
