I'm trying to life the Christian life style but I continue to struggle with alcohol consumption and other pleasures of the world. Thanks for your prayer and support.

Many people find it hard to live a christian life at the beginnign, so don't feel ur the only one, but u have to over come it and be strong for the lord. Keep prayin everyday, read ur bible and try to over come the temtations little by little. did u know that when u sin u are a slave to it. it is not only people that work for other people are slaves. if u cant over come drinkin alcohol u are a slave to it. ur master is alcohol. u will do what it tells u to do. so my advice for u is try speakin to the things that tempt u. it works, tell that alcohol u will no longer be the slave, ur the boss and if u say ur not gonna drink ur not. and everything else in ur way. 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.

Thanks buddy. You were very helpful and encouraging.

Praying in Jesus Christ is Lord for the love and desire for Jesus will fill you.
God bless.

Dear brother, I know how hard it is to live in the world and want to live a Godly life.

Just ask Jesus to take control of your life, talk to Him more, read His word a bit everyday, and before you do anything think, would I do this if Jesus was with me?, well brother He is. Jesus is always with us!!!

I pray for you brother give your life completely to Jesus, and He will make you a wonderful man any father could be proud of, I pray that our Lord blesses you with great faith, peace, tranqulity, love and joy overflowing, in Jesus name, Amen

Love in Jesus
bro Gary
