Battle Buddy: Day 8
This feeling is like walking around with an extra 50lbs strapped to your body and finally taking it off. Like getting a vision check, finding out you have terrible vision, and getting prescribed glasses for the first time and you see the world in high definition. Our Lord has blessed us so well, He truly does guide our steps. I am in complete awe at how much walking away from porn has changed my life. All the praise and glory to Him. This is nothing I can do on my own and I challenge you brothers to do the same and walk this fight with God. Let your heart pour out to Him, surrender it fully. Michael!! : I love having your support through this all! There is also the competitive side of me that’s thinking “I won’t let him out do me in the walk to freedom” which I think is fun! You are truly putting in the hard work for the Lord. As you may know, working for God is a form of worship! God is pleased with and seeks our worship (John 4:23-24). He also tells us the we will be corrected and through that correcting, if we allow Him, we will become more righteous and filled with peace (Hebrews 12:7-11). Stay strong in the faith and He will provide!
That's awesome Robert! I may be a bit competitive as well but I more look forward in crossing that 90 day finish line together. It’s definitely better to have a running mate rather than run the marathon alone. We will never know what the Lord has instore for us though I have always believed in the Lord. He has a plan for all of us. He may send us a friend in a time of need or lead us away from situations that would cause us harm but in the end God always leaves us with the opportunity to prevail over temptation. “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV) We can endure. We will stay strong for the Lord!
