Keep Me In Your Prayers
4/17/2007 5:57 pmLast Read: |
My brothers and sisters, after almost 42 years of smoking I am quitting. Today is my 2nd day without a cigarette and I am doing really well. I got a perscription for Chantix on April 6th and started taking them that day. I am really very excited about this. I hope that you will all keep me in your prayers. I realize that 2 days is not much but each journey starts with only one step and for any of you who are former smokers you know just how long 2 days without a cigarette really is. I know that the Lord will make me victorious as long as I trust in Him. Please just bear me up to Him in your prayers. Ephesians 6:13 . . .and having done all, to stand

It took my husband 4yrs on and off to kick the habit...it must have been tough going ...but he did it in the end!!  God bless  Man can make many plans...BUT it is the Lord who will direct his paths....

Hey girlfriend. I started Chantix on the 4th but I'm not doing as well as you. I have gone from 2 packs a day to about a half a pack a day. That is something! I'm gonna' get there, just you wait and see. Elizabeth

In response to all of the above comments, thank you all for your support. Merry, thank you especially for the smile. Fortunately I haven't come to look that bad yet and won't by the grace of God. Elizabeth, I had already cut down from two packs a day to one since the new $1.00 a pack tax was instituted in January here in Texas so I had a head start. I went from a pack to a half a pack during that first week on the Chantix. Sharloa, I am praying that my finances will now soon become such that I can get my computer repaired (again), get my phone turned back on and get my internet access back so that I can come back home here to BC where all my family are. I have missed you all so very badly. Today is day four, praise God, and I am doing well. Ephesians 6:13 . . .and having done all, to stand

Congratualtions!! I know how difficult it is. I quit two and a half years ago, cold turkey. It is one of the hardest things to do, but I feel so much better now!! God bless you, Candi
