first let me just say my friends don’t pressure me too do it and i used to be able to resist but recently I’ve been weak and I’ve caved and smoked pot i need prayers so ill be strong enough to resit both pot and chew and also some advice would be nice too God bless y’all
 
I will remember you in my prayers today. May you draw closer to the Lord and realize that you do not need pot in your life. May the Holy Spirit enlighten your mind and heart to see that you are created in the image and likeness of God and that your body is a temple for Him and should be treated with reverence.

I would recommend that you meditate on John 4:1 - 42. This is the account of Christ’s meeting with the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well.

In it the Samaritan woman can serve as an metaphor for our own life. Like her, we sometimes find ourselves going to seek refreshment from a “well” of sin. We hope that it will quench our thirst, that it will satisfy us, but it doesn’t. Even when we realize this we often continue to go to this “well” because we have become attached to sin or do not know where else to go. But just as Christ met the Samaritan woman at the well and freed her from chasing after that which will never satisfy, so Christ will meet us too in our weakness and lead us to Himself if we will only let Him.

This required that the Samaritan woman be honest with Christ, but once she opened herself up to Him she not only received healing, but also was so overflowing with grace that she went out and shared it with others (her entire town in fact). So Christ can use even our weakness, our sinfulness, to bring about great good. “…where sin increased, grace abounded all the more…” Romans 5:20

supertubos:
prayers are not enough. You need support, human support.
1st you need to know why are you doing that. 2nd you need to hae those issues solved.
after you ve done it all, lets pray, what i am doing now.
 
Relax and breathe in the Spirit. Find God within.

ANGER: Lord, take away my hurt. What amd I less thankful fo? Where do I wish happened differently? Where was I hurt? Whom am I blaming?

DEPRESSION: Lord, let me forgive like you-unconditionally.
Do you want to be healed by thinking and feeling as differently as you?

As Christ see–the presures on the on the one who hurt yoou, his good side, the whole picture say–what Christ said to his closest friends, sinners do–what Christ would do to give the love needed by the one who hurt you. Do this until alll conditions for change drop and I can say and do all that Christ would like to do through my prayer

To forgive deeply as Christ forgives, you must be stretched by Christ’s mind until you can speak as he did his seven last words, his final attempt to forgive. If a person has hurt you, Christ waits to say today through you the same words he spoke two thousand years ago at the cost of pain and life.
 
I am praying for you and your other intentions. I will pray for you at Mass.

God bless.
 
Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, make me holy
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ make me strong.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Hide me within Your wounds,
Let me never be separated from You.
Deliver me from the wicked enemy
Call me at the hour of my death,
And tell me to come to You.
That with Your Saints I may praise You
Forever. Amen.

CountrySteve,
This is a prayer said after holy communion. I will remember and pray for you in the holy sacrifice of the mass tomorrow morning.
Please pray to the Holy Spirit to give you strength. Here is a novena you might want to try:

Heavenly Father please grant Steve the gift of perseverance and reassurance in knowing Your word tells us ‘the just man falls seven times and rises again.’

Breathe in me,
O Holy Spirit,
that my thoughts may all be holy.

Act in me,
O Holy Spirit,
that my work, too, may be holy.

Draw my heart,
O Holy Spirit,
that I love only what is holy.

Strengthen me,
O Holy Spirit,
to defend all that is holy.

Guard me so,
O Holy Spirit,
that I may always be holy.

Amen.
 
Lord, may Steve pray a lot for the graces he needs to stay in a state of grace. May he take up praying the Rosary every day if he hasn’t already. May he avoid bad company and all occassions of sin. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.

Ahhh that is very good news. I had to do that when I first stopped smoking. Had to quit going to some of my favorite restuarants until the urge passed. Every now and then I have to be honest, I feel an urge to smoke.

God bless.
