"Your enemy the devil roams around like a roaring lion seeking whome he may devour." I read this verse and it hit me like a hammer. I have found the longer I get into sobriety the less I am aware, or at least pay attention to the satan's tactics. I think I am doing just great and then all of a sudden WHAM naked woman!! WHOA BACK UP THE TRAIN!!

Now I haven't fallen and I am still on the wagon but I had a close call because I was not aware of the enemy. Let's all be aware!

 

God Bless

Could you share some more details Bill ?

What caused you to stumble even if you didn't fall.

I searched my bosses computer and found sites that were not appropriate. I figured he was looking at them and found out i was right. The problem was when those sites popped up I had a rush of feelings and had to close it fast. If I had waited too long I know I would have been pulled in. Ever since then I have had urges to "check his computer" If you know what I mean.

Bill,

Congrats on being strong enough to back away from the urges, that's great.  I've had to be careful when trying to help others, not to allow myself to fall back into the traps.  Its amazing how powerful this stuff is.
