Tommy God has already forgiven you for your sin the moment you asked Jesus into your life and confessed him as Lord.From that point he paid for your sin
in full past present future.It is not sin that stops us from being with the Lord so you are saved.The problem you are experiencing is the battle for your life
in the here and now satan is out
to destroy you and he knows our weaknesses.If you are honest there were already issues
in your life that you struggled with and never got the victory over.So where do you go from here as i found myself
in the same situation i was a christian but walking according
to the flesh.God does nt change his mind he always loves us but because of our choices we distance ourselves from God.The issue is that we like sin thats our wicked hearts and
to be fair we cant change our nature only Christ can do that our old nature must be crucified with Christ.The stumbling block is our pride we have
to admit that we cant do it For me that was terribly difficult i was so independent thinking i could do anything but the
truth was a made a real mess of things.I sense you are at a crossroads and are feeling desperate and confused.So as a brother
in the Lord you need
to confess your sin
to God and tell him that you are weak -LCB- we all are -RCB- and that you cant do it
in your strength -LCB- None of us can -RCB- but ask him
to send the holy spirit
to help you deal with the temptations and the sin that you struggle with and he will help you
to change your life he will empower you as he did me.Rather than look at who you are look
to Christ and walk
in him and he will make you a new man and sin will not have dominion over you.Jesus came
to set us free from bondage.Having once been a slave
to sin i know what it is like
to have been set free by the power of God and that is what Christ is offering you today.All it takes is a desire
to change or repent and admit we cant do it and trust him
to give you the strength
to walk
in him

in ways which may indeed convey deep
truth, yet have
in themselves the status not of ontological reality but of poetry.

in him — I should not be saying this but I am being inherently made

in the cabinet gracefully for America and the world.That shows the humbleness of President Obama and maturity of Hillary Clinton of acceptance without a feeling of high and low of ego
regarded as exceptional
in Divinity.I was not supposed
to make this comment and I have done so
to urge the Republicans
to accept their Light within of consensus through individual projections under control as Obama's gesture of bipartisanship that will come
to address.
In short, this comment is all about health and health care where economics alone does not come into the picture with a rigorous analysis on it but should also extend as leverage

to the public at large voting even putting behind able dleaers like McCain?George W Bush was the last
to steer America into the Light over the past of America and that stands as the subtle
truth even today as on date with Bill Clinton the ex President of America giving support through his excellent independent caliber for Obama ultimately
to head the show of America that was time bound of its reality that sees no barriers and
to which he accepted well
in his individual capacity as the free lance ex President of America.
