Today's course is about strengthening your mind, awesome awesome awesome..cant say enough great things about this course..What You Allow Your Mind to Think Upon is How Your Spirit Feels...no wonder why I have felt so broken..I was making myself feel so bad...YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR SPIRIT...GOOD THOUGHTS = GOOD FEELINGS AND A RESTED SPIRIT

Responsibility-You MUST write things down and reread them until they are so engrained in your spirit that you can quote them the second ANY impure thought enters your mind..the mind is a constant spiritual war zone and nobody would go into war without being properly prepared..same goes for the preparation of the mind..Always be prepared for warfare

Idle Time-Well well well..Imagine that I have a job that affords me way to much idle down time in between calls..well I have decided to spend my down time with inspirational motivators like christian music..scripture..Christ blogging and prayer and I am sure there will be more things I can think of

I have started my MIRACLE GROW CHART..I have listed the following 12 things to be completed daily...Read on how to be a godly husband..exercise..read 5 Psalms...read 1 Proverbs..pray 3 x a day..Abstain from a habit for 1 hour per day (unfortunately I do use chewing tobacco..but God will help me address that soon enough)..Read the purpose driven life..read 1 chapter of the bible daily (currently reading Ephesians)..Read the Daily bread..memorize 1 Bible verse daily..complete the daily Christian Counseling course..And Family Fun time/Dance Time/Family Time (My daughter was watching me as I was writing these steps down and Wanted me to include this and It was an absolute pleasure to make my family time a priority in my daily christian life)..And I am Proud to say everything was checked off the list as completed today

By Renewing your mind,body,and spirit..it is a way of glorifying HIM

If you Ponder about your problem,keeping it in your memory,you may be keeping it from going away..RELEASE IT INTO GOD'S HANDS...GIVE IT TO GOD

Heavenly Father I hand all of my problems..worries and heartache over to you right now..you are working amazing and wonderful things in my heart..mind and spirit..I haven't felt this alive in a very long time and I have you to thank for it completely..I pray that you will renew my mind daily and nightly and continue to pour your spirit into me and my beautiful children..I will continue to fill my heart and mind with your scripture and pray that you will never allow me to EVER turn away from you EVER again..I love you Lord Jesus and I ask all things in the sweet name of Jesus.

Today was a good day...I spent time with my Jesus praying..reading and spending time with my children...I sent a couple of text message to my ex earlier today and told her about the cashier yesterday (please see day 5) and I also sent her a text that told her about the changes I can already see in my kids just because of me having Jesus in my heart and how thankful I am to her for all of her prayers for me to change my life ..She did not respond..But that's OK..she probable still thinks this is all a big scam..But Jesus knows this is my true heart and I am never going back to the person I used to be

As the day progressed I did notice that I was not as patient with my children as I had been..I still did not yell or say anything mean to them..But I did start to feel very inpatient...my ex gf was nice enough to take the kids for the night so that she could spend time with them..She loves my children as much as I do..and is a very good mommy..I decided that I wanted to look nice for her..so I took a bath and cleaned up very well..Now the whole time admittedly I was trying to look good so she would assume I had a date..(Now I never said a word about a date or even implied it..However..I know her and I am sure that is what she was thinking when she seen me nicely dressed and smelling of her favorite cologne)..When she arrived my kids ran outside to greet her and I also met her at the door with my daughter..we were very pleasant with each other and I helped her get all of the kids in the car..now I once again realize that it is a matter of perception on my part..But When you really feel like you know someone..Some things just don't ever seem to change about them..But I felt by her body language that she really wanted to hug me or kiss me or just reach out in some way shape or form) It felt like she just wanted to say so much to me..but wouldn't allow herself to..she just kept looking down or started to text on her phone.. .But that's OK..her heart is not ready yet..just like mine wasn't when she prayed for me so many times to change my life..I kissed all my kids and hugged them and told them Jesus loves you and sent their children's bible with them so they could continue their study tonight and went back in the house and finished my bible studies for the day.

To those who have been following me..Know that this is a REAL conversion in the making..none of this is falsified in any way shape or form..If you are going through similar trials and tribulations..Know this..I AM ONE OF THE WORST SINNERS OUT THERE..AND JESUS IS WORKING A MIRACLE IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW..So you can also receive his blessings just by following the steps and giving it all to god..and it is only day 6 for me..Imagine what you will be reading about me on day 14...I cannot wait for tomorrow and continued blessings..This has truly been a heart breaking and spiritual healing journey for me already and It is only going to get better

please continue with all the prayers and words of encouragement..I love you all and I thank God for bringing me here

Glad you found the reason behind the mental turmoil. It does make a difference when you realize we're in a spiritual battle and that battle is taking place in our minds. Keep defeating the enemy brother. One battle at a time.

Take care. Stay close to Him.
