The first thing I read this morning

I started my morning by open my little pocket bible to a random page. It opened on James1, and it really spoke to me this morning.
 "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all things he does."

Wow what a powerful message. How much our Lord loved us! He has given us everything we will ever need and the knowledge and truth to live with him forever.

Peace be with you all brothers and sisters in Christ

My first post in a while

I've always felt that my life resembles our Lord's parable about the 3 seeds. I'm the seed that grows fast but doesn't have strong roots so I get blown over very easy. While I've been making mistakes lately I've been very good about not trying to just have sex with women. Recently I lost some weight and I have been getting extra attention from women. This has made being abstinent a tad harder. This feeling that I'm not happy unless I'm with somebody is still there but I know that it can't control me. Nothing more really to say, If anyone has any prayer requests please let me know.

I forgot I have this to report, Walter is doing great in Northern California, he is using half as many asthma inhalers a month and his doctor has taken him off his sleeping and high blood pressure medicine. It just shows that all things are possible in the name of our Risen Lord Jesus
