Stepping stone#5 This one has me thinking more because anger has always been another one of my many problems. To be honest, I don't know what to wright about. :oops:

Finding the root of my problem to me would have to be that when I was a young adult I drop out of high school and never made anything of myself. I job hopped alot(you could do that then) and partied more. As I grew up most of the people I hung out with were buying there own house, driving nice cars, and had other things that I wanted. Today I still look at what people have and I want it. ( that would be breaking commandment #10) :( I guess I have been angry with myself because of my failures in life and I let that come out in anger. I don't know how much of this gos along with todays step but as I wright this I realized that I have some repenting to do because of breaking the tenth commandment. *Pray* Time to stop feeling sorry for myself and start being glad for what I do have. There are people out there with way less. Lord please bless those who are less fortunenut then I.

bluebird, as you grow in this walk you will find yourself wanting less of what the world has to offer and more of what God has to offer. The things your friends have will seem not so important. See when you have the joy of the Lord, the tiles can fall out of your shower and you will laugh....this happened to me on Saturday is why I can say this ;) I pray that as you continue this walk, His joy will grow and grow and shine through you and you will want for nothing in the world, but will want to store up your treasures in Heaven.

Keep sharing my friend.

luv ya
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.

hey bro...glad to see you moving forward in the steps.

My uncle used to say, cuz he switched jobs so often too, that he had gained a ton of experience...and it's true. Look at the things you have done and dont focus so much on what you havent. The enemy whispers words of failure to us, but that isnt how the Lord sees us at all. He sees you through perfect eyes of Love. He sees what He created you to be. As you go along in these steps, He will reveal this to ya. So, yeah, repent and get up and move on. Something we all have to do every day.

Bro, pray too, that He would reveal anything in your heart that is causing you to be angry. He will, and He will walk with you through it, too.

Its so awesome to see how much work has been done in you so far, and He's just getting started in showing you how He sees you.

With ya all the way, bro.

In Jesus,
momo *Halo*

Hey Brother Blue *Wave*

Day 5!!!! *Cheer3*

Anger... well you see, you have something else to pray about, repent for, seek forgiveness and release to Him.

Ask Him to search your heart and remove everything that isn't of Him...that is all negative emotions.

It is so awesome that you are going through these steps.. great healing begins here for many!

Looking forward to Day 6!! *Clap*

Please know you remain in my prayers, as does your family.

Peace and Luv in Christ,

*BlessYou* Lani
