I have over dosed 11 times on heroin wtin the past 2 yrs. My last 1 was about 6 grs ago. I have fallen away from Christ and even denied The Trilogly including Jesus Himself. My heart had stopped for who knows how long. Ive been increadable bitter and, well, pissed off at God. The fact tgat im still alive and even listening to the sermon now is nothing less than a great example of God's grace love and patience with me. I've always liked dr. Evans's messages and I hope that God will soften my heart and heart and help me to change my attitude on God and his people. It's actually very imperative that this happens Anyone who reads this I am requesting prayers to get back on track like I was once upon a time. Thank you very much for reading my post

Remember people, The bible is filled with individuals who felt like giving up at times, but because of the committment they made to Christ, they stayed the course regardless. The Apostle Paul (in 2 Corinthians 12:8) prayed and pleaded with God THREE TIMES to remove the thorn from his side. God never took his issue, his problem, his ailment away. But God simply reminded Paul by saying, "My Grace Is Sufficient." So we don't need to keep praying over and over about the same issue, or stressing out about how long we've been going through something. Jesus said, "I've Come To Give You Life And Life More Abundantly." Just focus on God's grace that allows us to wake up every morning, which is a privilege to be given to those who God has a plan for. And how do you know God has a plan for you? If you're reading this message, it means you are still alive from God's divine grace. Blessings to you all.

Its 3am and I'm up frustrated with my life and wanting to give up. I have to be at work in the morning, but I have been thinking maybe I should just quit. Giving up would be so easy. I needed to hear this. I am so thankful for God's mercy on me.
-
I wish EVERY Christian could/would watch this sermon and listen closely. It's encouraging, but also a sobering reminder to stay HUMBLE; God resists the proud.
