The purpose of this essay is to ask a very important question. What have the Lord done for you lately? For example, God has kept me alive for 60 years. God has given me the ability to do what is necessary for me to stay clean and sober. The Lord God has changed my behavior for the better. An example of what He has done is prevent me from using vulgarity on a daily basis. God has also removed the desire from me to look at pornography each day. Proverbs 15:1 says a soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
Next, I want to inform all of you that God has improved my prayer life with Him. God has improved my behavior when it comes to improving my thought life. An example of this is whenever I hear voices that are not benevolent, I start reciting Bible verses out loud. I still have a long way to go in my personal life. When it comes to my prayer life, I have been fasting as well. Hebrews 11:1 says faith is the substance of things that are hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen. My faith in God is very strong. I have been writing inside of my journal for almost a year now. I have been writing blogs for the past 8 years.
Moreover, I am a Blogger right now. Love keeps no record of wrongs. I will admit that I have been hearing voices that are not benevolent in nature. The voices that I hear each day and night are derived from events that happened to me on Tuesday October 13, 2009. This is the day when gang members in the Charlotte, NC Area tried to kill me. There are wisdom in many counselors. A wise coach knows how to develop skills in order to win sports.
Further, I used to play basketball when I was a little boy. I played basketball for 4 years. I played for the YMCA in Dayton, Ohio for 2 years. I also played basketball for Edison Elementary School and Franklin School in Dayton, Ohio from 1976 -1978. I also boxed for the Salvation Army Boxing Club from 1979-1984. I also was in NJROTC at Nettie Lee Roth High School from 1979-1982. I was in the Color Guard during my freshman year in high school. I graduated from high school 3 years late because I went to Job Corps in Grand Rapids, Michigan. My life has changed from 1984-1990. I had sustained injuries to my left hand. I broke my left hand on Friday July 6, 1984 at 3:45PM at Edison Elementary School Playground. I was playing basketball with my friends, and I will admit that I was intoxicated.
Also, the injury occurred while I was faked out by one of my friends. Suddenly, I was up in the air, and I landed on my hand. I was in a state of shock because my bones came out of my hand. I was transported to Miami Valley Hospital. I was admitted to the hospital for 3 days. I had surgery on my left hand and wrist on Saturday July 7, 1984 at 1:00PM. My surgery took 6.5 hours. The surgeon had to put a steel plate inside of my left hand because my bones were damaged. I am saying that to say this. I am a brand new person. I am a brand new creation when it comes to God.
In Addition, I graduated from high school at the age of 20. I graduated from Paul Laurence Dunbar High School on Tuesday June 10, 1986 at 7:00PM at the Memorial Hall in Dayton, Ohio. Within 9 months, I was enrolled at Central State University for 2 years from April 1, 1987 -1989. I was enlisted in the United States Marine Corps from January 21, 1988-February 21, 1988. I did not stay in the United States Marine Corps very long because of behavior problems. I did not take things seriously until Thursday January 21, 1990; when Peaches, my girlfriend at the time, told me in my face in the rain on Federal Street in Dayton, Ohio that she did not love me anymore. She admitted that she used me just to move another man inside of my apartment.
From January 21, 1990 to September 1, 1990; I went to my grandmother’s house and stayed until I went to treatment. On Friday May 4, 1990; I had a hernia operation at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Dayton, Ohio. I was not able to urinate because of a bowel obstruction/blockage. The doctor inserted a catheter inside of my penis just to remove the fluids that was inside of my bladder. I stayed with my grandmother’s house when I was discharged from the hospital. I stayed with her until June 1, 1990. I went to treatment for drugs and alcohol until I moved to Toledo, Ohio on Friday September 1, 1990. I had to leave Dayton, Ohio because there wasn’t anything here for me. From 1990-1996, I lived in Toledo, Ohio. I enrolled at the University of Toledo from Monday April 1, 1991-Friday June 14, 1996. I had a lot of fun in Toledo, Ohio.
Proverbs 20:24 says a man’s steps are of the Lord; how then can a man understand his own way? I guess my biggest problem is that I didn’t know that it was God, who was doing exactly for me, more than I was doing for myself. It is the Holy Spirit that I bear that is doing everything for me. Proverbs 16:9 says a man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord direct his steps. It is the Lord who directs my steps. Jeremiah 10:23 says O Lord, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.
Job 34:21 says for His eyes are on the ways of man, and He sees all his steps. Proverbs 21:2 says every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the hearts. Proverbs 30:5 says every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Finally, God has blessed me with the air that I breathe each day of my life. God has blessed me with my five senses, as well as hands, arms and legs that move each day. God has blessed me with a place to stay and Bibles to read each day of my life. God has blessed me with the ability to read and write. Amos 3:3 says can two walk together unless they are agreed.

Good Day!! My name is Anthony H. and I am a grateful recovering alcoholic. I would like to share my experience, strength, and hope regarding Sponsorship. First of all, I would like to say that having a sponsor is the first and foremost when it comes to communication with other members. For me personally, I was court ordered into the fellowship by the Dayton, Ohio Montgomery Common Pleas Courts simply because I committed drug related crimes. I also had a mental illness as well. To be honest with all of you, having a sponsor is a person who is capable of assisting me and giving me advice; while in the program. I know that my very first sponsor and I got into a fist fight because he was too demanding. He really did not know how to be a sponsor and he got mad at me because I was in the streets too much for him. Even though, I had completed the 12 Steps, I was a person who was a follower of the streets. I was transitioning out of the street gang culture, and it was very hard at first, but I had to take care of myself and my own family. Sponsors are people who are experienced in the AA Program. I will admit that I am a Sponsor myself and the people who I am sponsoring are involved in street gangs. There are 3 of them who had recently relapsed and I told them that I will be there for them after they are released from treatment. I had advised and suggested to the men to attend meetings on a daily basis. I also told these men that they have to avoid having a sexual relationship for one year. They had to abstain from having a relationship with a woman. These men had to get themselves together first and foremost. I help them with things that pertain to Alcoholics Anonymous. My suggestion to a newcomer in the Fellowship is to attend 90 meetings in 90 days, read the 164 pages of the AA Book. I also tell newcomers to also call me if they are interested in me as a sponsor. I also tell newcomers that they will have to establish a relationship with a Higher Power or God. My objective as a sponsor is to help each person and myself to get through the 12 Steps. I can only advise and suggest to another fellow alcoholic. I cannot tell them what to do. I can show them a better way of life that is much better than drinking and getting high. My name is Anthony H. from Dayton, Ohio and I am a grateful recovering alcoholic. My topic is Sponsorship. My sobriety date is May 2, 1990.Thanks for allowing me to share.
Reconciliation and Forgiveness with God, Ourselves and with Others!!
This is a very special essay concerning the importance of reconciliation and forgiveness with God, ourselves, and with others. The first thing that I want to say is that God has never left us or forsaken us. Perhaps, we might have forsaken ourselves at times in our personal lives. I say this because I used to be a person who did not believe anything, unless I see it with my own eyes. Secondly, God is not mad at you. He is mad about you. God wants us in His family. He really wants us in heaven with Him.
Further, God forgives us because He loved us. Forgiveness does not equal reconciliation. Reconciliation takes two people. For instance, our relationship with God is very important to us. God’s love is supernatural. Forgiveness opens the door to reconciliation. God’s love will always persevere. Our conversations with others with God requires change on our part. He have to be totally honest and sincere with Him. Reconciliation requires that we be on the same page with God, ourselves, and with others.
Moreover, I want to inform all of you that I have rededicated my life to Jesus Christ as of June 3, 2018 at 7:30AM. I want to inform all of you that I have been baptized several times in numerous of Churches. It is that I was still harboring a lot of anger with myself and others. God had always understood me from the time that I was inside of my mother’s womb.
According to Jeremiah 1:5; God knew us while we were inside of our mother’s womb. Even before we were formed, He knew us, before we were born, He sanctified us and ordained us as a prophet to the nations.
In Addition, God even knows exactly how long we are going to live. When it comes to Psalms 139:16, it states that our days are fashioned for us even before we are born. However, love keeps no record of wrongs. Therefore, we should meditate on God’s love. There are times that we tend to hold onto our past and there are times that we do the same thing to others. God sent His Son to die for our sins. In order to have a conversation with God, we need to keep prayer simple. We also need to read the Bible as well. We are ambassadors for Christ. Do not hold grudges against anyone. We need to turn from our self-centered living so that God’s love would be possible.
Jesus died for us so that we can be free. The cross makes reconciliation possible. God’s love is stronger. God is the God of all power. God communicates His heart with us. We represent the heart of God. Fear in love; perfect love cast out fear. We need to allow God to fix us. We need God’s grace. Freedom is here. God love for us is very pure. To me personally, God was saying let me know when you are ready. Reconciliation requires change. We are afraid of asking too much. For me personally, I have become a member of the Mormon Faith, 3 Baptist Churches, and currently the United Methodist Church. I have dedicated my life to each church by getting baptized in water and receiving the Holy Spirit.
Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. Please, never stop at forgiveness. I have officially reconcile with God yesterday and I am happy. I still have a whole lot of work to do. I have to share the Good News of the Gospel of Peace. Jeremiah 23:23 says that am I a God near at hand says the Lord, and not a God afar off? God is always with us. He has been with me even during my active addiction. I have learned a whole lot since the year 2015. This is during the time that I was baptized by my current pastor at Fort McKinley Church in Dayton, Ohio.
Romans 16:18 says live at peace with everyone. Jesus body and blood was shed for us. God’s love drives out fear. Acknowledgement is the first step of healing. God will never fail us. Christ died for us so that we can move forward and reconcile with Christ. God will always give ourselves to us. Freedom and joy comes from God. I know for me personally, I feel a whole lot better right now. I must reconcile with my family members and those who refuse to talk to me. I must first reconcile with God, myself, and others as well.
The Bible is a conversation material for us. God is saying engage with me. I engage with God by reading His word, praying, and acknowledging all of my sins and ask God for repentance each day. We all want to be heard and understood at all times. Hurt people hurt people!! I will admit that I used to take all of my problems out on others. I was not a bully. I was a person who was under attack by my enemies from the past. I also had Satan as an enemy as well. When it comes to the devil, I will admit that I was a person who was hearing voices that were not benevolent.
The voices that I have heard were demonic spirits attacking me. There were times when I used to talk back to the voices. Personal attacks destroy our character both externally and inwardly. These messages cause a lot of blame. People react to pain in different ways. All we do is collect wounds, and it starts all over again. It also has a lot to do with anxiety and worry. God sees a future with us. He forgives us. God wants a heart to heart conversation with us. The cross represents the hope for reconciliation. God is more interested in changing our circumstances. There are no exclusions to God’s love. Whoever lives in love, God is with them.
We are made free in Jesus Christ. We are ambassadors for Christ. God reveals His character through us. We are God’s creation. This is the Good News. His blood was poured out for our forgiveness. God has forgiven me. I feel much better right now, and I am sharing this message today because God loves you, and so do I. This is a love that has no walls. God’s love goes beyond our human expectations.
May the God of all peace be with you all!! God Bless You!! Thank You for reading my essay.
My name is Anthony Joseph Hopkins and I am a Blogger. I want to inform everyone that I have been writing for the past 31 years now. I have a total of almost 50,000 professionally written blogs on a number of websites. I am intelligent, kind, sincere, understanding, humble, and smart.
I would like to start this essay by asking a very important question. Do you think that the Word of God taste as sweet as honey? The answer is yes!! According to Jeremiah 15:16 it says that when your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart’s delight, for I bear your name, LORD God Almighty. When I think of this Bible verse, The Word of God is very refreshing. I also gives me freedom and truth. I really enjoy God’s word every day of my life.
Further, I want to tell everyone that God is Love. God has changed me for the better. I really do not like to use any vulgarity or engage in any behaviors of my past. The Holy Spirit is inside of me. I have been born again on 2/15/2015 at Fort McKinley Church in Dayton, Ohio. I got baptized in the name of the Father of the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I am changed by the power of the Holy Ghost. My mind itself has changed. I am educated about the Word of God. Psalms 1910 saysthey are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb. The word of God has changed me because I am taking ownership and responsibility for all of my actions.
Moreover, I know that I have to read the Bible and remember a lot of verses. The Lord has touched me because I feel a whole lot better by listening to worship music instead of rap music. I do not listen to the music from the past and watch movies from my past because it is of the world. The world itself has changed so much from the time that I was a child that I would prefer to attend church on a regular basis, read the Bible each day, and pray honestly to God. My prayer life has changed because I always tell the truth to God. Matthew 6:8 says the Lord knows the things that you need of long before you ask Him. This is the reason why I recite the Lord’s Prayer and the Serenity Prayer each day.
Also, I always pay attention to my environment because it is changing as well. According to the State of Ohio Department of Commerce, over 9,000 people moved out of Dayton, Ohio last year. I did not know this until I saw it on the local news. Frankly, the Lord is keeping me here in my hometown of Dayton, Ohio for a reason. Even though my family members are upset with me because I attend AA/NA Meetings on a regular basis.
I have been clean and sober for 28 years as of this year. In order for me to have a conversation with God, I must open up the Bible and ask God to speak to me through His word. God’s love for us will never cease. The Lord will be with us every day of our lives. God has not stopped loving you. God will never give up on you, we should not give up on Him. The Word of the Lord is true. The love of God works as long as we give Him a chance in our life. Love never fails. The Bible is a conversation material for us. The Lord God will engage us with His word.
Finally, I want to say that ever since I have dedicated my life to Christ, I feel a whole lot better. If you want to change, that will put a smile on God’s face. God is smiling on all of us who want to change. Forgiveness is a part of spiritual healing. I have been learning how to appreciate all of the small things that God has done for me. I thank Him when I wake up. I thank Him when I read His word and listen to His music. I also ask God to follow me everywhere I go. I even thank Him for allowing me to write, read, and to use the computer. I ask God to reveal all of the strongholds in my personal life. I am happy to disclose this information to others. I ask God to do all of the work in my life. Thank you for reading my blog.
