I love it when life is a struggle, it reminds me that I'm human. Yes there are some screwed up people around us and we ask God to remove them from us like our addiction. We don't need to beat around the bush with God and pray poetic prayers. Being blunt and specific with God is a sign acknowledging your faith. Remember God is not impressed by a flurry of fanciful words. He is listening for what your heart is saying. The heart of prayer is prayer from the heart. God desires our heart-felt pleads.

We prefer to ignore how dead we really are spiritually, even though for some we come close physically with disease or tragedy. "God, make me know my real end (but not through addiction), help me to measure my days so we know how fragile we are. Let us not work in vain, heaping up wealth with no idea who will get it. As we place our hope in God realizing that life is worth considering today. God help us to talk about your blessings and goodness for as long as we can. Considering the certainty of death, God can provide a dynamic approach to life while we still have it.

This one has surface and deep down B. S. There are good and bad people all around us. Most of them have some sort of addiction (control over others, pridefulness. . . You get the pic). We declare people or circumstances "bad" if they mess-up our plans or inconvenience us. We judge circumstances or people as "good" when they agree and support our cause. But God is the one who determines what is good or bad in our hearts. Even when something does not seem good to us, it is those around us who observe our responses to "bad" situations. When things look bad, remember God is good.

Be sure your sin will find you out. Hidden problems we have on the inside does great damage. We need to bring them to the surface and deal with it - or face defeat of what we want out of life. Dear God, reveal any areas of my life that are not pleasing and forgive me. When we talk to God he ensures forgiveness.

While deep in our addiction or sin, alot of us never know where our next meal will come from. We reach out to those we love only to brutalize what little they have. Where in words or food, when we do our part to help others it is up to them to help themselves. Do not be shy; tell your stories of God's greatness, you never know who's heart may be ready to respond. Give someone a hand up, not a hand out.

The God book refers to people as sheep- easily distracted and influenced with following the crowd. So the big question for us is who are we following? Each other? Or the voice of wisdom to do the right thing? Our challenge today is not to make the mistake like the sheep who blindly follow each other off the cliff. Be a positive influence with yourself so others may want to follow. Take a chance and listen to the small still voice of wisdom. God Loves You.

"Out of the depths" of our addiction, we cry out to God in terrible guilt of things that are done and undone in the past. Unlike humans, God keeps no record of how bad we have been in the past. But, what happens if we slide back to the past? What if the guilt lingers? That is when we as humans need to find hope in God. We are not hopeless cases. We can look and find trust in God, just know we are forgiven and no record is kept of our failures. This goes alot deeper when seek him.
