Thank you 24 grams, you have no idea how much this has helped me today. I was truly on the verge of giving up, so I thought maybe just one more look in the forums, and maybe there is something there to keep me going. Sure enough after re reading this thread there is no doubt, God inspired you to start this so that it would help me and many others.
Been very frustrated lately because I have not changed as much as I wished, because of the realization that I'm still yet carnal, evil, and sinful. So now all I can do is surrender and accept and deal with what ever happens next, because ALL is of God. There is much less anxiety and fear within me because of this thread, and a little more faith and hope.
Once again, thank you 24 grams, and everyone else for the input and Scriptures, most importantly thank God. Im not alone, and neither are any of you, it's good to fellowship with like minds, with like problems, and like hopes. Like Brother Joe said in another thread, ".....we should be comforted in the fact that being a member here is not a prerequisite for salvation!", so true, and I'm sure Brother Joe knows better than most of us, how it really helps to be a member here and to participate, and help each other when it gets rough, just as God planned.
Ecc 4:10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
Gal 6:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Thank you my Brothers and Sisters for everything, all the glory is His for bringing us together in this forum.
Peace & Love
