hey fellow Christians, my name is monica, im eighteen, ive had a rough life, im sturrgling with faith, with what i want to do with the rest of my life, im not exactly homeless yet, i just started staying with my boyfriend and his roomates, but they are strong christians and thet said they are here to help... but i cant be here for more than fourteen days before i have to put my name on the lease.. you have to have a job to do that.. i do not. but their letting me stay for a little bit, its up to me to find a job, and attempt to get my own place, if i cant do that then i am homeless. i have just recently found jesus agin, it was a wondeful feeling and still is, i went to church today for the first time in a very long time... went up to the alter and just prayed i layed it all on the cross... im am doing the best i can to better my relationship with god. because i know with christ anything is possible. i have this integrety inside my self to want to do this, i just feel like the devil keeps throwing things at me, i recently just quit smoking pot. that was the easiest thing to do but now i feel like either the devil is hoping i backslide, or the lord is testing my strength and so far i have begun to stick with jesus i feel like im on the right path... but im still dealing with temptation... everywhere i go i smell it.. around the apartment building... its so hard to fight back... but i asked the good lord above to protect me and give me the strength to fight back... sometimes i feel lost like i have nothing figured out and i cant find a job anywhere.... but i am going to try! because i do not want to be homeless...

A little piece of wisdom that's been relayed to me is this: whenever life starts to get hard and God sends trials your way, get ready to rejoice. On the other side of those troubles is great reward.

Keep in prayer, read the Bible, and stay connected with a Bible-believing church family. There's also here, for whatever assistance an online forum/chat can provide. God is willing and more than capable of getting you through all this, and as long as you stick with him, he most certainly will.
