Making a U-Turn!

Good Morning! Prov 16:25 There is a way that seems right for a man, but in the end it leads to death. Are you walking down a path that you realize is not the one that God wants you on. I will admit I haven't here of late. I'm not doing these things today, but not long ago I let some old behaviors creep back into my life. And I am still feeling the repercussions from it today. Now if we go back to Deut 28 this whole chapter is on Blessings and Curses from the Lord. For obedience and disobedience, and I'll bet you can figure out which one gets you which. You see the Lord has set down rules and commandments in His Word that we are to follow. And by following them our life will be Blessed and by not following them, I won't say your life will be cursed, but it just won't be as good as it could be. How do I know? Because I am experiencing it now and have experienced it many times before. Now I don't want you all to get worried, because right now I am in the middle of making one of those U-Turns in my life. I know you all remember when I was having a problem with the gambling, well it kind of returned again for a little while. But what also returned with it, is many of the repercussions of when I was doing it before. And more people are finding out about my problem. Cause maybe you all think just because I write this thing everyday I don't have problems, but hey! I am a man! But the thing is, is if I didn't do this every morning, I would probably have bigger problems in my life. That is why I call this Views of a Sinner, because I am not perfect and I make mistakes. But Hey! I do have some good news in all this. We serve a God full of Grace! He wants to help us, He wants to forgive us. But He cannot do that until we make a U-Turn off that path leading to no where back on the path that leads to him. You see I have felt the Lords Blessings and I have felt His Wrath. I know what it is like to walk with the Lord, and to try and walk on my own. And believe me without Him it is not easy. In Duet 28:1 it says, If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all His commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. Vs 15 However, if you do not obey the Lord your God and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today all these curses will come upon you and overtake you. So what I am trying to say today is, is there something in your life that is keeping you from all the Blessings God wants to give you. Make a U-Turn from it and get back to His commandments. And please say a prayer of strength for me. Because I'm turning this Bus around. HABD!
