Today, we went to church. My daughter wasn't feeling well. She didn't eat lunch. She has been sleeping for a few hours now. This is making me anxious. My wife tells me this is due to her period. My daughter is only 11. Also, my wife told her not to put a fan on her face while she slept and I guess my daughter didn't listen. Also, my wife told her to cover herself with a blanket but she didn't listen. Now my daughters symptoms are ansore throat, headache, feeling bad, and fever. Right now she has a 37.7C temperature and she says she feels ok. But I worry. My wife is always telling me not to worry and not to spread my fear. She told me to stop asking too many questions about health. My OCD is making me crazy.

My wife also doesn't like it when I show fear. She's more attracted to me when I show strength and confidence.
And I believe that God wired us men to exhibit more of those masculine traits. Women adore strong men. But they despise weak ones.
Much of my journey was to embrace my own masculinity while, at the same time, accepting and appreciating my wife's femininity.

My daughter is sick again with a fever and sore throat on day 2 now. She's been sleeping all day yesterday and today. I worry a lot.
Dear Lord, all things are in Your control. I worry and fear. I know this means I doubt You and I am ashamed to admit it. I confess I am wrong and trusting in my feelings and not in You. Lord I think I might be believing the lies of Satan and this makes me fear even more and I can't do anything. Lord, please forgive me and please hear my prayer and heal my daughter. Lord please let my wife be strong. I am so happy I have a strong wife and she is good for our family and I am blessed. Lord please bless and strengthen my wife. Please let the doctors find what is going wrong with my little girl. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Some people never recover. I hope that is not me. Read the last verse.
Proverbs 5:1-23 CSB My son, pay attention to my wisdom; listen closely to my understanding [2] so that you may maintain discretion and your lips safeguard knowledge. [3] Though the lips of the forbidden woman drip honey and her words are smoother than oil, [4] in the end she's as bitter as wormwood and as sharp as a double-edged sword. [5] Her feet go down to death; her steps head straight for Sheol. [6] She doesn't consider the path of life; she doesn't know that her ways are unstable. [7] So now, sons, listen to me, and don't turn away from the words from my mouth. [8] Keep your way far from her. Don't go near the door of her house. [9] Otherwise, you will give up your vitality to others and your years to someone cruel; [10] strangers will drain your resources, and your hard-earned pay will end up in a foreigner's house. [11] At the end of your life, you will lament when your physical body has been consumed, [12] and you will say, "How I hated discipline, and how my heart despised correction. [13] I didn't obey my teachers or listen closely to my instructors. [14] I am on the verge of complete ruin before the entire community." [15] Drink water from your own cistern, water flowing from your own well. [16] Should your springs flow in the streets, streams in the public squares? [17] They should be for you alone and not for you to share with strangers. [18] Let your fountain be blessed, and take pleasure in the wife of your youth. [19] A loving deer, a graceful doe - let her breasts always satisfy you; be lost in her love forever. [20] Why, my son, would you lose yourself with a forbidden woman or embrace a wayward woman? [21] For a man's ways are before the LORD's eyes, and he considers all his paths. [22] A wicked man's iniquities will trap him; he will become tangled in the ropes of his own sin. [23] He will die because there is no discipline, and be lost because of his great stupidity.

Today was a really bad day. But I will not kill myself with the sins I did no more. The Bible says that Christ Jesus atone for all my sins. The Bible says God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
Lord You know what I desire and how I act and feel. Lord I beg You for mercy and forgiveness and please save me and cleanse me. Please help me to know You Jesus and not just know about You. I'm so afraid of You telling me to depart from You. Lord rescue me. Please deliver me. Lord by Your Holy Spirit please set me free and fill me please. I'm so lost and broken and hurting and blind without You. Please give me repentance that leads to life and the godly sorrow I desperately need. In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen.

It was good to talk with you yesterday. I'm praying that today is better.
Anyways, my prayer for you is that you continue to embrace God's love, mercy, grace, and acceptance in your life.

Thank you for praying for me Kevin. God is helping me with knowing Him better and also assurance that I'm His. Today I could feel peace with God and I don't want to leave God ever again. I'm glad I have brothers like you around me and praying for me. I hope you are blessed.

Romans 6:9-18 NLT We are sure of this because Christ was raised from the dead, and he will never die again. Death no longer has any power over him. [10] When he died, he died once to break the power of sin. But now that he lives, he lives for the glory of God. [11] So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus. [12] Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. [13] Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God. [14] Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God's grace. [15] Well then, since God's grace has set us free from the law, does that mean we can go on sinning? Of course not! [16] Don't you realize that you become the slave of whatever you choose to obey? You can be a slave to sin, which leads to death, or you can choose to obey God, which leads to righteous living. [17] Thank God! Once you were slaves of sin, but now you wholeheartedly obey this teaching we have given you. [18] Now you are free from your slavery to sin, and you have become slaves to righteous living.

Ephesians 6:10-18 NLT A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. [11] Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. [12] For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. [13] Therefore, put on every piece of God's armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. [14] Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God's righteousness. [15] For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. [16] In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. [17] Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. [18] Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.

Hi will, I'm going on two weeks of sexual purity. I feel blessed and strong today and hopefully I will remain this way. I think our church is baptist. I live in Japan and it's all in Japanese but I'm trying to learn. I hope you have a blessed day in Jesus.

I am very frustrated at work. It's not lust. Thank you God. It's just slow and I'm so easily angered. I also hate hearing the conversations around me sometimes. Not that I'm some holy guys but I am tired of nonsense. I also admit to sharing my strong opinions to others too.
