All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others
addiction
Hello Im new at this so please forgive me,
I have been a gambling addict for years, I put it down to being lonely.
I have tried everything to stop but I still do it.
I see the hurt in my families eyes and the shame in my own when I look in the mirror.
I just want to stop feeling like this, to stop destroying myself and them around me, to feel good about who I am instead of ashamed.
Thats a lot of things starting with I is that another sign of me being a selfish person?
Thats how I found the site, I was looking for help.

His word upholds me, without it I am dead. My favorite verses for the past 16 years have been these ones:
John 8:31-32 (New International Version)
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
1. If you hold to my word/teaching - condition
What does it make you?
2. you are really my disciples.
What will happened then?
you will know the truth. What truth? The truth about everything pertaining to God and Godliness.
And then what happens?
3. the truth will set you free.
Free from what? From everything that wants to keep you down and enslaved.
Break Free with the Word.
We have been given an armor we must put on and never take off. We have weapons for our warfare which are not carnal, but mighty. Ephesians 6:12-17; 2 Corinthians 10:4-6
