addiction

I have been bailing my brother out of issues for several years now. I love him dearly but this last time cost me greatly. After sending him to rehab twice he is still ill. When he came back the last time I had him live in our basement. While we were gone for a day to visit my wife's mom he sold...

Taken from my blog site: Way Truth & Life You sit in the fowl smelling, dark, cold and dank prison. There is a crack where you can see the glint of sunshine outside, and you get periodic fresh air rushing in on windy days and it feels like liquid joy in comparison to what you daily breathe...

Taken from my blog site: Way Truth & Life He is so in love with her all and His thoughts toward her are that of a good future and a life that is specific to her well being and wholeness. Jer 29:11. They were destined for each other, some would say much like in fairy tales where there is a...

Jesus found me. In reality, he did so long ago and He's Just woken me up to it. In short, I was a hard core addict one year ago. I was alone with my addiction. My family is not religious at all though I see some of them coming around to it mostly in appreciation of my heling. I paid money...

''Addiction is a condition that plagues millennials. And it’s not simply drug addiction—whether you’re addicted to inappropriate contentography, social media or entertainment, you’re struggling with a dangerous idol that threatens your relationships, not least among them your relationship with God, who wants...

My husband is addicted to gambling. His gambling has gotten SO bad and no matter what I do he finds new and creative ways to gamble. He has literally gambled almost every month of our marriage but now instead of gambling small money he gambles entire paychecks. I have tried everything. He was...

Hello everyone, I've been struggling with inappropriate content addiction and masturbation for many months now, and I've began to understand that an important and fundamental key in this process is to have an accountability partner, so I'm writing this to see if any mature Christian or someone who is struggling...

Greetings to all! First and foremost, bless each and everyone of you who are brought here to discuss this topic. I have been a believer all my life, but I truly turned my life to Christ last April. It has been such a rewarding life since! My question is: is medical marijuana a blessing from...

Friday, July 21, 2017, 5:13 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “He Reached Down.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read varied scriptures (in the ESV) on the subject of slavery to sin. Practicing Sin (Jn. 8:34; Ro. 1:28-32; Gal. 5:19-21) “Jesus answered them, ‘Truly, truly, I say...

I wonder if anyone else on CF is addicted, or in danger of becoming addicted, to spending time on CF. I come onto the forums at different times of the day, (more or less whenever I get the chance) and I notice some others seem always to be there. I admit that I enjoy reading various threads...

For the last five years of my life, I've lived as if I was two persons merged into one body. The one part of me craves to understand God and His word, yet the other side wants to manipulate and seduce women (sometimes even men when deep into the dark side) and do it repeatedly multiple times a...

My name is Teresa, I am Kenyan. I am really struggling with masturbation and inappropriate contentography especially reading some (now it's seems like) crazy literature. But I know it's sin. And I know that I am compromising something when I can not pull myself out of thoughts of lust. I know my place in God's...

I came to, completely dazed and confused about where I was and how I got there. I was laying on a Hospital bed, both my mom and dad sitting next to the bed looking like they had just been through hell on earth. My near death experience isn't the kind you will read about in a book where I went...

Saturday, February 11, 2017, 8:00 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Search Me, O God.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Titus 2 (NASB). Older Men (vv. 1-2) But as for you, speak the things which are fitting for sound doctrine. Older men are to be temperate, dignified...

Hi everyone! This is my first time on a forum like this. I'm sorry if this post is under the wrong forum. My husband and I were married 4 months ago and of course now we are being hit with life. Before we got married I knew that my husband struggled with a inappropriate contentography addiction, however this was...

I remember that I wasn't much older than 11 years of age. It was the late 1990's, and the internet had not made it into our home, yet. Television was the way for me to get entertainment. By day, I watched cartoons, motorsports, movies, soap drama's, etc. But by night, being the curious only...

Hello Everyone, this is my first post on these forums, because I have a lot going on in my mind right now, and want some answers. So yes I am a Christian, and am now getting out of a video game addiction. I am starting to really work on making God my NO.1 priority in life, and this is getting...

Sunday, August 28, 2016, 5:30 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Jesus, Lead Me.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read 1 John 4 (ESV). Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the...

I´ve been downloading music for free since I have internet connection and I never thought about in in that way (it was only for personal use). Since I heared about downloading being a sin I started to feel bad when I was doing it. I talked about it with my friends and family and they didn´t...
