Tonight,my rocky road to recovery continues moving forward.I had a pretty good day today.
Today,I woke up in the mid morning and I had my usual 2 cups of coffee.After my coffee,I washed up real quickly and I had my usual quick breakfast afterwards.After my breakfast,I quickly got dressed and I headed over to the company to pick up my paycheck.After that,I cashed at a nearby check cashing place and got some gas.After that,I made a small deposit into my checking account.After that,I headed straight home.
When I got home,I quickly did my personal PC work and I watched TV for a while.After that,I made my meal for work and I headed over to work.
The work shift went well.After it was over,I headed straight home.
When I got home,I changed into pajamas and I watched a little TV.I also did some more personal PC work.After that,I prepared to retire for the evening.Overall,a pretty good day.I also managed to get some recommended Holy Bible reading done as well.
Please continue praying for me as I am still struggling terribly with this SSA that I have.I still have been slipping and falling into fantasies and lusting as of late and I really could use the prayers right now.I also would appreciate some positive verbal support in the comments section.Thanks to all of you for your continued support.Thanks also to both my Heavenly Father and his son Jesus Christ.
As for the weekend,with the exception of church as usual on Sunday morning,I have nothing planned.But I hope that whatever I choose to do gives me positive benefits.
That was my day today and my hopes and plans for the day ahead.FJ

FJ, good to read you were able to find work, hope it continues for you my brother. Regarding the temptation toward fantasizing (I'm not always successful to be honest but I know it is because I am lazy and let the urge go too far) I am finding as I immediately say the words, "I will not go this way, Lord help me;" the thought goes away and the urge in my body to act dies. Guess you could call it disciplining myself. Too, it is also so easy in the midst of fantasizing to forget the inner pain that came the last times I fell to fantasizing and the resulting inner pain it caused (as well as berating myself by saying "Why did I do that again?"). Just some thoughts. You are in my prayers. ♥

A couple days ago a FB friends sister wrote the following words on her page and it encouraged me so much. For you too.
So how are you tonight? I hope you had a good day. I hope you're OK. However, I know that some of you aren't. Some of you have come to the end of this day just glad you somehow made it through and hoping against hope that tomorrow will be a little better. Whether that describes you or not, allow me to share this beautiful benediction with you that reminds me of the fact that no matter our circumstances, there is always hope - simply because of Whose we are.
"Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in him, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." - Rom 15:13
He is the God of hope, and he desires that we abound in hope. May that knowledge sink deep into your soul tonight - into every dark crack and crevice, and may the light of hope shine brightly in you tonight and every night. God bless you, my friends."

Thanks again for your kind and encouraging words. Yes Stan, I do thank you from the bottom of my heart for your encouragement and Christian brotherly love. I also loved it that you shared what a friend's sister said. I will try to put this, what you said and shared, into practice in the near future and I am going to also try to continue praying as admittedly, they are times that I dose off in bed without realizing it and forget to pray as a result. I have to keep in mind that if I don't pray, Satan comes in, alongside his own evil minions, and uses his evil powers, with his evil minions helping him, to tempt me into fantasizing and lusting after other men. Satan is not called an adversary for nothing, nor is he called "the devil" for nothing either. Thanks once again.
By the way, Stan, please read my post for tonight as well. Thanks.
