I am in need of prayer. I made a mistake that can effect my family. It was stupid and not who I am as a Christian, husband, or father. I have asked for forgiveness and know God and my wife have forgiven me. But there is talk of going to court and losing my job. This has been a great time of growing in faith and I have repented from so many things that I haven been doing wrong. God has granted me peace and I know everything will be ok but fear and worry still attack me. I pray for faith, strength, and patience. Please join with me in prayer.

God gave us the free will, cause He is not a God who obligate us to obey Him, His principles for a good living. It is not so easy to go against our own evil human mind/heart and accept truly God's project for us. To live by faith and not for sight is a great learning experience which we'll never regret, specially when you see its solid fruits. Even obeying and living in God's will, we'll still be not perfect, we'll still ofend someone, we'll forget to say 'I'm sorry'... but we'll be still seeking to please the Lord... we shall not give up on being someone aproved for Him... We're in the final times, and as soon as you take real position of what side will you be, of God or His enemy, the best for you. It is not impossible to avoid sin, if you're with God. The sin always seems to be a good choice, but no one wants to think about its consequences. The Lord forgive us and tells us to not sin again. His forgiviness is like gold, some people missunderstands it, and think if God forgives me, I can sin wherever I want.

Setting you and your family before God in Jesus's name for God's love overflowing, driving out all fear, bringing all the confidence, forgiviness and streangth needed.

God bless

I am praying that there will be grace covering this issue and also that you're comforted and at peace. amen.

(If we ask for strength God gives us difficulties to demonstrate His strength, if we ask for patience God makes one wait to teach them patience. I am one of the people who got burned by asking for patience. Dont ask for these two things dear brother, lol. I believe what you really want there is His peace. Praying that peace of God is increased in you to the full.)

Yes, our faith gets tested every so often. It's important to trust the Lord. He leads us through all of our life's experiences.

Thank you all so much for your prayers. This has been a period of the biggest spiritual growth I have experienced. It means a lot to have so many people praying for my family.

As an update, I have been told I can do my job again. Next week I should find out if I get to keep it or not though. I continue to pray and know God has a plan and knows what's best for me. I have full faith He will continue to work in my life. I ask if you could please continue to have my family in your prayers as we continue through this process. Thank you all again.

Gracious Abba,

thank you for dying for this brother's sins on the cross. We know that you have forgiven us for all that we have done. Thank you for the blood of Jesus that continually washes us.

LORD, give to this brother and his family peace and protection, give them strength to pull through these turbulent times. Let them be reminded to walk in Your paths and abstain from the temptations of the world. Bless his work and let him excel in his area of work that he may be a testament to Your grace, forgiveness and glory.

I pray this in the name of Jesus,

Amen

I met with my boss earlier this week. His boss will be back next week, he will decide if I keep my job. I continue to maintain my faith that everything will work out. I know God wants what's best for me. Please continue to have my family in your prayers. Thank you
