Hello, my name is matthew, and I need everybody to pray for me. For about 2 1/2 years I've slipped away from God, and about February I asked for forgiveness, and the Holy Spirit came down into me again. That was while I was in college, but now its summer and I'm back home, and it seems the same earthly tempatations are breaking me apart again. Please pray that I would be strong with Christ, so I can b attle my temptation.
Hey Matt! I'll definitely pray for you! I know what you're going through, because it's happened so many times to me, even though I'm younger than you. It happens to a lot of people, so you're not alone in this! One question...can I add you to my MSN list? I just read your profile and saw you have hotmail. Later! Take care and God Bless!
It can always be a struggle being a christian but just remember that its all worth it @ the end of the day:) Live today as if it was your last and just remember God is smiling down on ya :)
One of the things that has helped me.. is build fences/boundaries in my life to ward off temptations or other icky stuff... whether its being careful with what I watch on TV or movies (though really I can't find much to like anymore)... or even the friends I hang out with. Even if they're christians... if they like to gossip or be all negative.. it's hard to hang out with them alot! I'm praying that you'll find some awesome strong christians in your life to help you as well as some good strong spiritual mentors and an awesome rock solid church that you can be a part of it and start helping out! Be strong and know that God is your rock.. if He is for you, who can be against you? rom 8:31 Even if it's just you and God, you've still got the greatest on your side.
