God is on your side ,Jen. There is no need for a CG to gamble. WE are intelligent beings made in God’s Image and Likeness. He gave us Free Will. Every time I gambled, I abused my Free Will. He will not intervene but we won’t be tempted beyond our capacity to resist. It’s not always easy to say no but if we place Judgement and Reason above Feelings , things will fall into place. Once we place that first bet, out judgement becomes quickly impaired and we lose control. The first bit of advice I got from Lee on GT was “Postpone the next bet”. It applies every time we think of gambling. Don’t label yourself as “The Queen of Relapse”. You are doing very well.
Think of TODAY.
Say NO to the G thoughts (Shout it out!)and tonight you will go to your bed with peace of mind.
“Just for today, I will not gamble” is my mantra.
