Life for me is starting to *try* to cycle again. But it won't happen.
People have told me things that have reshaped the way I view myself. No longer am I stuck in a pit. I am FREE. God has set me free through Jesus. I refuse to return to my old ways, and have completely conquered many of my past vices. Those that remain are stone throws away from being gone for good. However the stones weigh about 500lbs each. God help me...
you are free :)
ReplyDeleteif i can help you throw that heavy stone. you know where to find me
I think you know this, but you just about quoted Galatians 5:1-2. Also, remember with gladness what this same Christ says through Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it."
ReplyDeleteIf you are hard pressed, God is confident that you can bear much. You are strong, Van. You are a strong man, loved by God, saved by grace, a friend of Christ.
