Although one may be a Chistian a long time ,we will still have to battle with different things,we still find that certain things will manifest themselves,and it is a reminder to all of us,why Jesus died for us.But it is also a challenge to us that we need to change,and yet we may find it hard to do,even though we know we should,so what should we do.Well first of all let the wrong we are doing,see it for what it is ,sin,stop making excuses,stop saying that's the way I am,that will not help you to overcome the sin that so easily besets,honesty with yourself is vital, that's what God wants.When an alocholic goes to a meeting of Alcoholic Anonymous,they stasnd up and say ,'I am an alcoholic',they have stopped hiding behind lies,making excuses.So it is we must be honest with ourselves and with God,if not you will not be able to overcome the sin that so easily besets you.What I am saying is not for an unbeliever, I am focusing on Chistians. James 5 v16 reads ,'Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed'.These words stress the importance of mutal support,in helping us to overcome our sinful tendencies.Find a trusted friend who will prayerfully support you in relation to that which you have been battling with.
