Hi guys,
thanks everyone for your comments. Has been a shocking few weeks for me, the worst for about six months. SO depressing not being able to get over this. God is merciful though. Great to hear from you again Kevin, awesome to see you checking in : )
Am thinking of going to a SLAA meeting tomorrow evening here. Not sure if it's a good idea but trust the Lord to guide me. Have also requested a one-to-one with the Pastor of a Church have just started going to (have recently moved to a new city), so if the Pastor doesn't get back to me about tomorrow night guess I'll go to the meeting.
God bless you all!

Hi guys, Am thinking of going to a SLAA meeting tomorrow evening here. Not sure if it's a good idea but trust the Lord to guide me There's nothing wrong with getting more help. I loved SLAA. And @mike is a former member of SA. And God can most definitely meet me and teach me in a 12 step meeting. I have to put down my pride and surrender to His path for me, even if it's not in a Christian church or program. Yes, there are non-believers there. There are also a lot of Christians there too. Don't rule it out. I have several resources that I turn to. I need it all. There's nothing wrong with using every tool available by accessing BG, AND praying with pastor, AND going to SLAA. Get all the help you can get. we're rooting for you, brother. Excited to hear what your experience of the meeting is like.

Hi guys,
just checking in. 7 days praise God! Am very happy about it. Funny thing the enemy really attacks my sobriety, so many challenges and hiccups in the last few days as it approached Friday and Saturday that are the difficult days for me, people acting really badly out of nowhere. Thankfully was able to remember that this is the challenge and focus on just getting through it.
Really being blessed by these verses:
"The testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy" - Revelation 19:9 and
"I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom." - Daniel 7

Hi guys,
just checking in. Two weeks, Saturday today, the most difficult day for me. Have had a couple of attacks coming into my mind today, but have given them to Jesus. I know that the main battle is to get to my next sleep. Praise God He is faithful!!!

Will, praise the Lord! Keep pressing into God. Don't neglect your alone time with Him. He will bring your through this and into victory just stay close to Him.

Hey guys,
just checking in. Watched inappropriate youtube videos, not porn though, last Saturday, so have reset sobriety date. Really a grind at the moment dragging myself out of this rut, but happening slowly. God is good.

Been down that road many times Will. Today is a new day! Let’s keep moving forward!
Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14 -NKJV

Really a grind at the moment dragging myself out of this rut, but happening slowly. God is good. Just read Psalms 51 and ask God to renew your heart and put away those things. If you have to cancel the internet, I suggest it. I did for three years and it helped me a lot.
