I give ALL the Glory and ALL the honor to God! It is by HIS grace that I have been smoke free 35 days!
As a smoker of at least 24 years and up to 3 packs per day I just want to encourge anyone thinking and praying about quiting. Give it to God. If you take that first step He will meet you there. I won't tell you it is easy but I will say HIS Grace is sufficient!
God did not just take the taste and addiction away. The decision had to be made by me. I decided to smoke that first time and I had to decide to stop that last time. But God is faithful and He has been there to give me strength and make a way out of what I thought was no way. I never ever thought I could ever ever stop smoking. I enjoyed smoking and it was almost like smoking was my friend. But HE REIGNS!!!! He is the Lord of my life! I no longer wanted smoking to be the head of my life. I literally woke up each morning w/ a smoke being the first thing on my mind. Now I wake up thanking God for a new smoke free day.
I continue to pray for those who are posting their struggles w/ this addiction and am praying for those who read and are considering stopping. I thank each of you for your prayers as well.
