Quix 13568: Do you have any . . . concise exhortations to help make that easier, quicker . . . more complete, more efficacious. There are some of us who have a hard time effecting that . . . transaction sufficiently well, to our . . . confident satisfaction???

Not really, dear brother in Christ! All I can recommend is after laying something at the Cross, if it is picked up again – repent for having done so (i.e. not trusting Him with it) and lay it down again.


THANKS TONS AND WELCOME BACK! It has been . . . itneresting.

RE the above . . . . I suppose leaving it at the Cross means not thinking about it; not even praying about it any more etc. etc.

Say it’s a habit of scratching mosquito bites . . . which is usually unconcsious . . . after scratching or in mid scratch—realizing—oh, AGAIN! Repenting noting “I receive your forgiveness, Lord”; and then blocking out again?

Sorry, the nuts and bolts mechanics sometimes get me down.

I do think this is a growing edge for this RECOVERING OBCOM

Thank you so very much for your reply! Indeed, it is very much like a mosquito bite - like a reflex, something involuntary, when the subject comes up again - picking it up, fretting all over again and laying it down again.

It takes a lot of self control to resist scratching the mosquito bite. And there'll be quite a few scabs and scars along the way if you're like me.
