Need Prayer

<< < (6/7) > >>

Dave in Tenn:
Jeff, it's not troublesome.  These truths are not things I'm able to think about all day long every day.  It takes some 'prompting' to settle down and 'think on these things'.  Sometimes it happens here.  Sometimes in so-called "real-life".  They HAVE become so ingrained that I usually know when I'm 'straying', but a lot of the time, life just rolls along until He shows up.

Dennis - I also want to thank you for the link to the recording Ray made talking about being in spiritual prison. This is something that I recognized at one point but my failing memory causes me to forget. I know exactly why Jesus would put me in spiritual prison and (obviously) it's far more than appropriate - I fully deserve to be there. When things are going well I set my faith aside. So many times in my life I've abandoned my faith only to find myself facing something that drives me to my knees. It's a pathetic thing to have to be reminded that God is first above all things.  Not praising God when life is good shames me.  It's the main reason my life has been filled with misery - I prompt it.  I'm sorry to have bothered everyone here with this, but I'm grateful that you took me in, and helped to recognize the truth.  I have much to repent for.

Jeff

I think it helps us all when we ask each other for help/prayers Jeff.

Rhys 🕊:
Prayers for you Jeff.

We all go through things in this life and who knows what is around the corner but keep your focus on Him. That brings me peace through the difficult times. It's all for a purpose and God knows how long so rejoice.

Rhys

Jeff:
I have nothing but love and respect for every one of you to the full extent our Savior affords me. Thank you.  I'm humbled and grateful to God for all of you.  Everyone of you has given something to me that will help me grow in Christ.

Truthfully, this is home until He returns, and even then...

Jeff, I can also certainly relate with everything you are going thru and will also pray for you. I can not add any better words of comfort or advice than you have already received here. What a treasure to have such wise and caring counsel. I pray for all here and seems we are all in the same 'boat' in one way or another. I am slowly learning the truth of what John has said, altho agonizing, it is truth. We have to let go of I, me, and mine. God's will and purpose is all that matters in this life. When circumstances in my life seem like they can't possibly get any worse, they do...and I am reminded that this is all temporary, it will pass, the times of restoration will certainly come, probably not in this life, but it will come......that is the hope I cling to.
Much love,
Lauriellen
