precious_hrt,
It is a tough situation. Please be comforted that although Jesus want’s you to keep His Temple (your body) clean – smoking a cigarette will not keep you from Him or Him from you – Satan is whispering in your ear, lying and telling you that you are not worthy. DO NOT LISTEN TO SATAN! You ARE worthy. Be comfortable with Christ in your heart FIRST. Christ has no, that is N-O, ZERO demands for you to be loved by Him. However – Satan will give you a different message! Satan will tell you that “God can not ever love you – look at what you are doing – you smoke, you drink, you have anger, you overeat, you do this- you do that – God will never love you…”
precious_hrt,
Do NOT listen to Satan – listen to Jesus our God – begin loving Him first – no conditions, no ifs, ands or buts – just love HIM and HE will take care of the rest! I guarantee it! It is HIS promise! Love HIM first, with all your heart.
Love you and praying for you!
JN
AMEN!
Precious, it is good that you know this smoking habit is wrong, and are trying to deal with it. Praying that you will have the strength to quit.
