Successes and Attacks

God is great. And this is an actual praise report.

As of tomorrow, 12PM PST, I will have completed my first month as a man who is porn free. I have been relying on Him to get me through this, and it's been tough, but it's also been worth it. So, this is a major praise report. God is cleaning out my closet, and doing well.

Secondly, I have felt a lot free-er since giving up partisan politics. I used to be kind of a firebrand, but I am all but free of it now. God's been cleaning out my closet, yet again.

But, as always, with a praise report, there is always a prayer request. And tonight, I have 2:

1) I was in a major league funk the last couple of days. And in being physically sick, I was seriously under assault. Panic, loss of perspective, and other stuff. All because of the good things that have been happening lately. So, I just ask for you all to pray that whatever spiritual armor.

2) There is a young lady who contacted me a couple of weeks ago, through a dating site that I was once registered with. We are just chatting, currently. She is also a fellow believer. I do not know much about her situation, but I know she's been dealing with some illness lately, and some questions about careers. So I just ask that you put this young lady (who's name is being withheld for the time being) in prayer tonight that God will give her all the necessary help.

Thank you, everyone.

Actually, as the days have gone by, it's gotten easier. The big thing is to just let God take care of the situation. Which I've done.

The hardest days for me have been the first 3, the 14th, and the 29th day. Where I'm at now, I just have to develop new habits that'll take hold. I have 12 days to develop new habits, and it's already starting.

Keep praying, though. And moreso for the young lady I speak of. She's important.
