The Path Day 7,8,9
I'm on day 7 of the path. I drew the chart and I'm trying to eject some of the lies that have been introduced into my mind, that i have accepted as truths. I agree that if you are exposed to a lie enough times it becomes truth to you. I pray for God to help me with faith.
I'm on day 8. I do seem to be more tempted to sin in the last week, than I have in a long while. I guess the devil must think I'm becoming a threat to his cause. I am trying to change my thoughts, today was a little tougher. I sing the song Amazing Grace in my head, and I am going to start reading Psalms 23. I prayed today also to try to change my thoughts. I hope to have a better day tomorrow.
Day 9. I hope this step will help me to gain more patience, and I pray for God to help me to find faith. I have always believed in God and Jesus. I have tried over the years to dedicate my life to them. There always seems to come a point where I start to lose faith. I think in the past I had pulled weeds, and left a void, and my old habits and doubts would creep back in. I now know that I need to fill that space with "god stuff". I am going to put things to remind me of God around my home. I have been listening to Christian music lately and it has helped me very much. I feel this counseling is helping also. I find myself not wanting to listen to some of my other music on my Ipod, actually deleting some of my old favorites because the lyrics are pretty bad. Palms 37:34 Don't be impatient for the Lord to act! Travel steadily along his path. I need to remind myself of this passage often. I know the Miracle Grow and the 40 day habit chart will keep me on the right path.

hey albee, sometimes we need to declare the opposite over ourselves everyday until we believe it as truth. Woo hoo... you are an amazing person and God loves you with all His heart! truth!
It is better to light a candle then curse the darkness
No fear... just freedom

Thank You all!
Everyone here is so accepting, and loving. You probably don't know how much this encouragement means to me right now. Thank You! God bless you all.

Hello Albee
God bless you this day.
Step 7 is one of my favorite Stepping Stones, because I felt empowered to take action, in a righteous way.
God is so very Good, and He wants to heal us and to make straight our path.
Albee, God encourages us to be there for one another. It's an honor to be in God's family with you, brother.
God bless and keep you.
In His love,
Sister Mack

albee...I see you doing some housekeeping...cleaning out the old and putting in the New! I know God is smiling. I've found that I have less and less like for things of the world...especially music....I prefer listening to Christian music above all music...and what is really cool is every morning when I awake there is always a Christian song running through my head....just really lifts my spirit in the mornings...gets the day going well.
Keep working those charts albee....and keep your eyes on Jesus. He loves you albee.
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.
