Cant stop smoking cigarettes

Ricky:
Hello Tess, I found your reply to this post interesting. I have now ask God if He could maybe let me know too.
Hello Roy, I have always thought, with guys like you and me, that it may take Him just a bit longer to come through for us. So if that is the case its gonna be worth the wait, hang in there bro, I am, because a lot of trails and tribe's have been coming my way the last few weeks, I have passed with all of them, I know this for sure. Roy, God really does answer prayers for guys like me and you. I have been without my professional drivers licence for many years because the eye doctor told me that my eyes were not good enough now to get it. He said that I would not be able to pass the vision test. So for many years I have been just driving small trucks and vans for a living. I went and did my professional training all over again and I do not know why I did this, because I forgot all about what the eye doctor told me. Two months ago I did the training and now it was time for the written and vision test. What an idiot I am, I said to myself, what a waste of time and money, what a goof I am now remembering what the doc told me. Sitting in my car outside the testing office, and this is true God is my witness, I prayed, I told God that I deserve nothing from Him, but Lord Jesus if You could do me this one tiny favor and make my eyes good enough to pass the test, I would be so grateful to you. That was about all I said , I thought I was just wasting His time and mine. I went in and did the vision test, and I passed. I was so stunned by this, I failed the written test and had to do it again the next day, UNBELIEVABLE. I am now going back to driving big trucks, and all I can say is Thank you Jesus.
         Bless you all.        Ricky

Patrick:
Good for you, Ricky.  ;)
I enjoy the big trucks myself.
Jobs are hard to come by out here in AZ right now; an estimated 250,000 people out of work at this time. I applied for a driving job, hauling aggregate, and one of the questions on the application was, "have you ever tested positive for an illegal substance in a DOT or non DOT test. If yes, please explain."
Well, I was honest and entered yes. Marajuana, 1991, non DOT (random test).
Guess what, even with 300K logged miles and 25 years of driving experience, that disqualified me from employment.

Marky Mark:
Hey Ricky,

Congrats bro...

   At least you did not have to test out for a pilots license :o ;D 8)

Ricky:
Hey Patrick & Mark, Thank you so much guys, Mark, that video was so awesome. I downloaded that puppy real quick.  :o
  Bless you Bro`s.     Ricky

EKnight:
Wow Patrick that is pretty sad considering we've had presidents who have done far worse and the current head of the IRS neglected to pay his taxes.  Go figure. ???

Ricky, I have been doing the same thing you did.  I have acknowledged my inability to quit smoking to God and promised that if He helped me kick this stinking habit once and for all, I would give all praise to Him!!  We are working on it.  I have cut back considerably.  Glad to hear God gave you your eyes back.  ;)
