Greetings Body of Christ,

It's been awhile since my last post, but I continue to enjoy the truths I learn by studying the scriptures taught by Ray. The faithful members here are to be commended is well for showering newcomers with love and consistently praying for those who are discouraged and distressed, which happens to be the state I'm currently in.

I AM SO CLOSE TO GIVING UP! Some of you may remember my testimonies of how I served time in prison and how God called me out of the church and how He spared me from being shot. Though I know it was only the grace of God that has kept me this far it seems that I just keep falling on my face time and time again. I have diligently stayed away from indulging in any criminal behavior for monetary gain, but it becomes so hard when every legitimate endeavor I pursue seems to crumble after giving the illusion that it would serve as a bridge to my success. I realize there are decisions I make that are not in my best interest, but I honestly try to look for any signs from God before going in any direction, but the signs are just not clear.

I understand the scripture that says "come to me all ye that labor and are heavy laden" and I really do believe that God loves me more than I can imagine, but for some reason that alone doesn't give me the strength to overcome this horrible feeling I have right now. I FEEL LIKE A FAILURE! I desire to be a man of God and to worship Him in spirit and in truth, but I know the power to do so only comes from Him. I read Ray's transcript on repentance and the difference between godly sorrow and worldly sorrow and I desire for God to place His sorrow in me that would bring a change in my actions. But i don't know if it's happening.

I really don't feel like continuing to write, but I definitely need the prayer of the righteous because I just don't understand what's becoming of my life and what God wants me to be. So please pray that God strengthens me through this trial.

Charles,
I needed to say also that we are all failures at the moment...That's why we are waiting for our Lord to rescue us from this fallen state!!
Don't let your mind lead you off on rabbit trails...we all fall and we all fail..you are human just like the rest of us! We are all in this together! Hang on and know that you have our prayers...

Hi Charles ,

I'm certainly praying that God will strengthen you and carry you through this difficult time.

Jud 1:20 Now you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in holy spirit,
Jud 1:21 keep yourselves in the love of God, anticipating the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ for life eonian."
Jud 1:22 And to those, indeed, who are doubting, be merciful,
Jud 1:23 yet others be saving, snatching them out of the fire, yet to others be merciful with fear, hating even the tunic spotted by the flesh."
Jud 1:24 Now to Him Who is able to guard you from tripping, and to stand you flawless in sight of His glory, in exultation,
Jud 1:25 to the only God, our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, might and authority before the entire eon, now, as well as for all the eons. Amen!"
