There is much in the Bible you don't see.

defense?
I cannot say what I would do. If Demi Moore propositioned
me
would I choose to resist and witness to her about the
goodness of God? What would please my Father is CLEAR.
I am tireing of this but God says to be patient. Let Him
figure these things out for you Dave. He really can take
away this bitterness and fear. You have begun to see this
stuff for what it
really is. You resist, but you see.
When it is all said and done it is your choice to either
hang on to
these things which have begun to suffocate you or let God
have them. It is not a matter of trusting the group but of
trusting Him
alone.
Drop the defenses that you have built up. Be vulerable.
He really will protect you.
It hurts a LOT less than the way you are doing it now.
This isn't easy but it is worth it.
You have two that you haven't forgiven yet. The first is
yourself
for your weakness and the last is God for allowing these
things to
happen to you.
The hardest for me is to forgive myself! Give up Dave!
God
can do this too!
