ONE DAY AT A TIME

What does it mean to take it One Day at a Time?

Good Afternoon Everyone!! How are you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I am writing this blog by asking a question.  What does it mean to take it one day at a time?  I really feel that if I am living for God, I can make things very easy for myself.  By taking it one day at a time is like pacing yourself at your own pace.  I want to inform all of you that I am dealing with problems other than alcohol right now.  It is not easy living inside of this world, doing things that people inside of the world does.  I want to inform everyone that my life has not been very easy.  I will admit that I have made things very difficult for myself.

Next, I want to tell everyone that I still have to learn how to deal with life God’s Way. I will admit that I have to pray more and read the Bible each day of the week.  I know that my life has been complicated because I just want to do things my way.  One day at a time mean to be a peace with God.  I know that there are problems that I still have to resolve in my past.  I have been depressed and hearing voices each day.  Sometimes the voices prevent me from completing my daily goals.  For instance, I have not cleaned up my apartment thoroughly since last summer.  I will admit that ever since Mom died, my life has been an emotional wreck.  

Further, I want to share with everyone that I have not taken a drink or smoke any weed in almost 28 years.  I will admit that I have been taking a shower 4 times per week because I suffer from a skin disease.  I cannot use just anyone else’s soap.  For instance, I cannot go to the store and select just anything and use it.  I get very sick.  If I take things one day at a time, I know that God will do the rest for me.  It is God that is doing for me, more than I am doing for myself.  I have made some decisions that does not make sense.  I mean, that I have been sleeping on the floor for the past 8 years now.  I know that this is called living life one day at a time.  I want to tell everyone that I have to tell the truth about myself.

Moreover, I want to allow God to dwell inside of me and completely take over my life.  I am a wretch according to Isaiah 64:6.  Our lives are as filthy as rags that are completely dirty.  It is sad right now because I have not taken life one day at a time.  I have thrown myself at the hands of Satan himself.  I will admit that my life has been up one day and down the next.  I have to start living for God.  I have to start living for God.  By taking my life one day at a time is like pacing yourself during a long race.  I know that if I run too fast, I might pass out or run out of gas.  By taking my life one day at a time means yielding to a power that is greater than myself.  I have to really get ready for the next 28 years of my life.  If I live to see 80 years of my life, this means that I have taken life one day at a time.  I know that I have been feeling exhausted right now.  I do not have a desire to consume foods.  

In Addition, I have to get ready for the world to change even quicker.  I have to adapt to changes that might not be suitable for my needs.  I mean, I have to get ready to conform to a set of standards that might not be the best for me.  The word conform means to comply with or change by going to the flow of things.  Taking life one day at a time means that I have to mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually prepare in advance when it comes to doing certain things.  I feel at ease by allowing God to enter inside of my body, meaning the Holy Spirit and guide me in a way that I have never been guided before.

Also, I know that God will do His part in changing me in the way that I want.  I have to do my part as well.  It is not very easy because man has a sinful nature.  I have to deal with this and accept it for the way it is.  This is my biggest problem, I do not accept change very well.  When it comes to taking life one day at a time, I have to give God some time.  I have to allow God to prepare me for something that is very nice.  I know that my life has been messed up.  I have a tendency to complicate things for myself.  Jeremiah 32:27 says I am the Lord the God of all flesh, is there anything too hard for me?  If it is not hard for God, why is mankind complaining about minor change?  I really do not know. One day at a time is a challenge for some people; I included.  

Finally, I want to say that if a person pace themselves without being rushed into doing something, they will accomplish a whole lot in their personal lives.  One day at a time means to work at a pace that is sufficient for you.  The 12 Steps of Recovery are there for all of us who have problems in their lives with anything.  One day at a time is dwelling with sweet Jesus Christ.  I know that God accepts me for who I am as a person.  Mankind might not accept me in the same way that God accepts us, but I know that there is a better way to change in

  What is Forgiveness Part 2 By Anthony Joseph Hopkins May 8, 2021           Forgiveness Part #2 is simply about asking a very important question.   How many times shall I forgive my brother?   The answer is 70*7 = 490 times.   I will admit that I have to work on this issue myself.   This is simply because people has been cussing me out as of late.   I know that I have to forgive each person 490 times.     This is the truth.   I know that it is very hard for me to forgive each person 490 times.   I know that each person must forgive me a total of 490 times.   I have had one of my AA Sponsee cuss me out to my face.   I did not say or do anything to him personally.

Matthew 5:23-24!! What does this means to all people?         Good Day Everyone!! This is an essay that pertains to the Beatitudes inside of Matthew 5 th -7 th  Chapters.  I have selected two of the Bible verses just to place emphasis.  First, I want to say that this is not very easy for some people to apologize to another person, especially after you have done something wrong to that person.  For me personally, I want to inform all of you that my baby brother called me a homosexual because I am responsible for paying my other brother and a friend’s phone bill each month.  I understand that my brother called me out of my name without just cause.         Next, I want to inform everyone that my brother was out of line for calling me out of my name.  I have confronted him about the problem, but he refuses to reconcile.  Therefore, I am praying for him each and every single day of the we...
