I need your prayers
Sometimes, it's easier to ask for help anonymously to avoid gossip and judgment. I created a thread in the OT that I'm quitting gambling forever. http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s....php?t=1513958
I did it to spur others who have the same problem as me to seek help and for me to get some moral support. But from this group of spiritual brothers, I request your prayers, because this is a spiritual battle. There's nothing edifying about gambling. I decided that today is my last day of playing poker. From now on, I'm doing something more constructive. Thank you for your support. |

You will be in my thoughts. Had family member who lost it all at casinos and died penniless and wished they could turn back the clock for another try, but not to be. Every day forward is a win, but soon you will move on and beat this.

Thank you brothers. Got some PMs from some of you as well.
Would appreciate an accountability PM and prayers this Friday night 9PM to squash the urge. I've missed several Sunday worships because I was too sleepy from playing poker all night. Satan won those battles. He wins if God's people are incapacitated or even just distracted from doing his work. |

The way GOD convicts me when I spend time on other useless things he tells me I wish would spend as much with me as you do enter your distraction or idol here.
And I say sorry GOD thank you for loving and rebuking me and the battle continues. |

Praying for you too, Brother. We're members of each other (Romans 12:5) - spiritually united through our union with Christ. So, we're all there with you - because Christ is with you (Col. 1:27) and you are in Him (Eph. 1:3-14)!

Thank you! Others can do it in moderation, but I can't help but do it all night. Going on 2 weeks. No urge.

When I quit drinking by myself, 5 times, it never worked. I eventually found help. 33 years ago. Good luck OP.
