Amen to sep 8
I cant say how many times I had read Romans 7:15 w/o ever realizing that is exactly what I had been doing all the while , then racking my head wether i've gone over the edge or not, it never donned on me the reason for that was I had been reading it just 4 the sake of reading , never applying.
I had always been a believer of every action or event is a prelude to the next, like --prelude of healing of hand =applying ointment=burnt hand=placing hand on hot stove(action) , but the baffling issue 4 me was "why do I keep doing this?" Is it because I'm enjoing the joy I experience from healing ? Or am I just plain nuts . (got that reading stp 8) " INVITE sin just 4the sake of being saved" again and again and again it just simply does not make sense.
Reading Matthew 12:43 (again in stp 8) explains it (a bit) you clean the house you turn your back you turn around now he's back (again) this time he brought his girlfriends !!! ( OK this time I'll kick him out and I refuse to clean the house right? ) see, it was the clean house that he wanted ! Man ur a genius vahn. ever thought of NOT to turn ur back !?!?! duh ???
Thanx 4 OASIS's step 8 that man (at least Paul) had been doing that for at least the past 2000 yrs just 4 me to read, and apply it , IT IS NOT MY FAULT ONLY !!!
What am most grateful 4 is the suggestion 8 offereds, from now on , Kick him out, Clean the house & STAY in it , dust it DAILY and crank that stereo up to OUR GO--D IS A AWSOME GOD HE REIIIGNS - FROM HEAVEN A-BOVE !!!!!!

Vahn you put such new fun into these steps. I am so glad to see that you are finally seeing the Word in the way God intended it to be seen. See sometimes we just don't get it, but then all of a sudden someone else comes along and says, hey you...and then it's like now why didn't I get that before.

Hope you had a deLIGHTful day my friend.

luv ya

Yeah, what's the sense of going to God if ru not going to enjoy His Presence.
Something similar I use @ the other prog. is "did u put down a drink to beat ursrelf up w both hands "
Now I dont kno if that applies here or not but I think if u subbed drink w sin, it kinda amounts 2 same thing doesn't it ? Besides they told me its my journal I can write as I see it.
