Day 5 Identify the Problem

Postby learningtoagape » Thu Dec 10, 2009 11:39 pm

Well everyday gets a little better. While of course in the past I would say what problem.lol But yes I do have some problems and I am ready to face them. Some of them are pride, lust, confusion, prayer problems and body image.
I definately deal a lot with fear especially most recently with returning back to school and wanting to get more involved with the ministry. I know it is just the devil trying to keep me from God. Another really really big one is confusion. This is actually I think the biggest of them all. It is so hard for me to make decisions some times. I feel like I get crippled mentally and then I'm afraid and then I'm confused and then I do nothing. It was by God's grace that I was able to overcome confusion and return back to school. Making decisions is very hard for me. My struggles with lust come and go and I don't really know what brings the struggles on. I try to avoid things that will cause my mind to wander in that dirction. I can go for months without dealing with a lust problem and then suddenly it's there. Another problem I have is with my body image. I usually try not to think about my issues but I am admitting that these are some areas that I struggle with. I am just believing with God's help I will overcome.

Thanks for reading

Hey learning sis...so your identifying the problems huh? You know sometimes the problems can look so big to us..and we wonder how on earth will I ever fix all of this...the answer is You Don't...if you will begin asking God to help you with each problem, He will begin to show you what to do to overcome these issues. I think we can all struggle with making decisions at times...but the best thing to do when faced with a decision is to seek God's will. How do you know it's God's will? Simple...God's will brings peace Not confusion.

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.

THOUGHTS are the steering wheel of the soul ...

Change thoughts ... Change direction.

We truly have the ability to do so IF we choose.

God gave us Free will ...


Luv ya
Jesus is coming ... Get your soul prepared.
