Look sin in the face and defeat it. keep fighting with God on your side and he will win the victory. and remember sometimes God can tell u to do something that looks stupid to u but it works. for example, who would walk around the walls of jerico 7 times and knew they would win the battle? sounds stupid right?! but it worked. i'm sure it sounded stupid to the soldiers but they did it any way. good luck, we need u on Gods side so dont give up.
