Hey forgiven, they say it takes 6 weeks to form a habit, but years to try and break one. You are already one week into that 6 weeks. Keep pushing yourself to do the things that you need to, to make your walk with God a closer and happier one. God is smiling on you, He is happy to see that you have made it this far. You should be proud. Those things that you still need to work on, keep reaching out and do one at a time, until they are all gone.

luv ya

Forgiven, prayer is truly powerful. This is our way to share with God, just as you have stated. So glad you are exercising this as a way to nurture your love for God, and to bond with HIM, as well as asking Him to help you with your needs.

Step 10 done...wooohooo I'm excited for you. The race is almost finished, and you and the Lord are closer than before.

luv ya

Forgiven my sis! How i miss you! *hug*

Prayer, when you sit down and think of what it really is, can truly boggle your mind.

Its talking with the Creator of all things... The one who formed us in the womb, who knows our every thoughts and feelings... The one who has blessed us with soo many good things... Who is in control of all things.

And yet He makes time to hear us, and not just that, but He takes time to talk back :) And He actually wants that time with us cuz He truly loves us and cares for us. What an amazing thing it is to be in fellowship with the Lord.

Prayer is truly a privilege and an honor.

GBU lil forgiven :) You are doin wonderfully sis *JesusSign*

Forgiven, you have come such a long way. You are seeing things and are now acting on those things. To know that you can detect your falls before you fall, is awesome. God always provides a way out of a fall. It's up to us, to choose that way, instead of going ahead and taking that fall. I'm so happy you are going to try and choose the way out.

2 more steps to go. You are doing great. I'm happy for you.

luv ya

Amen lil sis! You are absolutely right *hug*

Fellowship is a gift from God :) He made us all part of one body with Christ as the head, and we should always thank Him for the gift of our Christian brothers and sisters, who help us along with godly advice and support and friendship.

Luv u lil forgiven *hug*

Yay lil sister!! *hug*

I am so proud of u!!

You are so right sis. It is not an easy walk. No one ever told us it would be. Jesus never had an easy life here on earth, HE went thru so very much. And as we strive to be more like Him, we have to realize that in the same way, we will have to endure many trials and hardships.

But there is a very that I cling to that says it all:

Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

And nothing worthy comes easy. The struggle makes the reward so much more precious.

God bless u lil forgiven *hug* Looking forward to seeing what God has in store for you :)

Luv u sis
