ON MY OWN
Today's reading: Ecclesiastes 3-4

"If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But people who are alone when they fall are in real trouble." Ecclesiastes 4:10 NLT

I cannot being to know what it is you're struggling with, how deep its influence goes or how far reaching this 'thing' may be in your life.

I do not know how many times you've placed it on the altar, at God's feet, in to His hands or turned your back on it altogether--only to have it back in your life within ten minutes.

I do not know how hard it is, how long you've fought against it or how embarrassing it may be.

Here's what I do know..God has not given it to you to handle alone.

He has given you godly friends to help you through it.

To pray.

To hold you accountable.

To listen.

To relate.

To remind you how very much God is for you.

To help you up when you fall again...and again...and again.

So continue to try it alone, if you want to--but it's not how God intends you to handle it.
