Let Go And Let God

On Wednesday April 9, 2009;  I was fired from my job working at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.   The reason why is because I was looking at porn at work.   I was an excellent Librarian, but I had to pray to Jesus Christ for Guidance and Direction.   I received my last check in the mail to my Sister's address in Dayton, Ohio.   I was homeless for a year and a half in both Charlotte and Dayton.  I got baptized at Shiloh Baptist Church in Dayton, Ohio.   I also got baptized again at Fort McKinley United Methodist Church on Sunday February 15, 2015.  I am a Born Again Christian Man.   My AA Sponsor and Pastor baptized me.  I have been clean and sober for 33 years.   It is not easy getting off porn.   I do not have any of those problems that I used to have in the past.   Do you know what I would tell teenagers today and that is stay away from social media because it is the Devils Playground.   It will influence you to do things that you have never done before.  Please pray for me and my family members because My Uncle Johnnie Lee Hopkins died before his 81st Birthday.   His Funeral was held in Chicago  Illinois on Monday January 22, 2024.  I have been paying my bills successfully for 14 years now.   Please help me Lord Jesus 🙏.   God Bless All of You for reading my essay 🙏. 🙏 I have been reading the Bible on a regular basis now.  🙏 God, grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change.   Courage to change the things that I can, and give me the wisdom to know the difference 🙏 Just For Today!

Have You Ever Wrestled with God

Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that the Man of God Wrestled with Jacob?        I have a very important question to ask everyone right now.  Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that Jacob wrestled with the Man of God?  I am asking this question because I had a flashback recently.  It happened in 1974 when I got into a fist fight with a 15-year-old boy.  We got into a fist fight over a black fisted pick that people used to comb their hair.  I fought this boy because he threatened my manhood over something that he could have purchased for himself.               Next, I fought with this boy because he threatened me with violence.  I might have been younger, but that poor brother was limping after I got finished with him.  He got away on his bike.  I want to inform all of you that this boy was 6 years older than me.  I want to say that I might not have wre...

God is Watching All of US

    God is watching all of us!!   I know for myself that God has been watching me because He is solely responsible for waking me up this morning.  He watches me because I know that I am not able to get away with anything that I am doing wrong throughout my entire 60 years of existence. Next, I want to inform everyone that I have been a Born Again Christian for 10 years now.  I will admit that I have had my moments when I have acted out by using words that does not make sense.  Lord God, I am asking You; to please forgive me of all of my sins both past and present.  This also includes any sins that I am thinking about inside of my mind, as well as any besetting sins that I have presently. Good Afternoon Lord Jesus!!  How are you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I want to inform you that I am only a Work in Progress.  The reason why I am saying this is simply because I am not perfect.  I am asking you to please bridle my tongue; so t...

STEPS ARE ORDERED BY GOD

Steps ordered by God         Is it true that our steps are ordered by God?  This is a very good question.  The reason why I am asking this question is simply because I am curious.  The following Bible verses will be discussed: Jeremiah 10:23, Proverbs 20:24, Job 34:21, and Job 31:4.  First, I would like to emphasize that God does order our steps.  According to Jeremiah 10:23 says O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.  This means that it is a Power that is greater than ourselves that is actually helping us.  Second, in the Book of Proverbs in the 20 th  Chapter and the 24 th  verse which states that man’s goings are of the Lord, how can a man understand his own way?  This Bible verse is a little bit different.  A man’s goings are the steps that are ordered by God.  How can a man understand his own way?  This is a very good ...
