Greetings Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I just wanted to share with everybody how one word from God totally lifted me out of a very deep depression. Recently I mentioned that I was considering suicide because of the pain of not being the man I felt God wanted me to be also because of other mental issues that were tormenting me. Well I shared with one of the moderators here at BT how I was feeling and in his initial response he pretty much reminded me that I wasn't the only one struggling with the flesh. However, in his latest reply he advised me to read one of Ray's latest transcripts in regards to overcoming sin in our life found here:

Though I had read and listen to this study a couple of times and also had read Ray's transcript on repentance it didn't fully dawn on me what Apostle Paul and Ray was trying to teach us; That we are truly God's workmanship and He will literally perform in us what He desires us to do.  I beat myself up time and time again because of the sin in my life, but never really grasp what God was saying. Since He put the desire in my heart to be righteous He's going to finish what He started!! I never understood what Apostle Paul was saying when he encouraged us to "mortify the deeds of the body through the spirit" I was waiting for the spirit, I guess like a pentecostal experience, but now I realize that by thinking on the things that Apostle Pauls encourages us to think on in Philipians 4:8 and then understanding Prov. 23:7: Whatsoever a man thinketh in his heart so is he, I realized that the power is already here and that God is going to take me from truth to truth, from glory to glory in His time.

This removed a major weight in my life and I am so overjoyed that God has given me this understanding. I believe I'll run on to see what the end will be ;D Thank you all for your prayers and I thank God that He has given us these moderators here at BT so full of wisdom and understanding. I don't take this for granted at all.

Be Blessed Brothers and Sisters and Stay Encouraged

In His Will,

Charles

Hey Charles.  Here's one for you from the mouth and Heart of the Lord Jesus.

Luk 22:31-32  "Simon, Simon (Charles, Charles), behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers."

You've done that here.  God bless you.
