Need Discipline

[chandler63]

Today I failed my first drug test after being on probation for pot for almost 2.5 years. It was a stupid a choice to use. I honestly don't know what the court will choose to do, but please pray they decide the right thing. I want to beg God for mercy, but I don't feel I've earned it. (I'm your typical lukewarm Christian who only comes to God in times of need.) I know that God disciplines those he loves, if he didn't - I wouldn't be his son. Most of all, I'm just a college student who's looking at prison time. Take my word for it that I don't think I'd make it through 2-10 years with violent criminals. Thanks in advance and God bless.

God, I pray that Chandler will find forgiveness from you and can forgive himself and he can grow closer to you through this whole situation. I pray that he will find comfort from you so that he doesn't have to turn to using pot in the future. Let him see himself through your eyes so that he knows he is worth so much more. Whatever the courts decide, Lord, keep him in your watch care and let him be made stronger in you. AMEN

Chandler - None of us can earn His salvation. He gives it to us because He loves us.

We are all His children. We are blessed even in our sins He extends His love.

Remember God does not really need us. We praise Him because that is all we can really do for Him. Yet He gave His only son for us. No one or anybody will ever love us that much.

God we beseech You to help Chandler and assist his journey to You. Show Him your love and compassion. Let him know that You hold dominion here and in Your kingdom.

Amen compassion
