    Just like many others who are addicted to gambling, I am in dire straights – financially and mentally. I’m behind on all of my bills 2-3 months and I continue to try to win back money and beg and plead for the spirits above to please help me. But all I get is the person next to me hitting a jackpot for $14k. My basement flooded and I need help. A…[Read more]

    Thank you for your reply. I used to think that as well until someone pointed out a verse in the Bible Isaiah 45:7; “There is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these …

    Just curious…. Am I the only one who no longer has faith in God because of their addiction? I used to be a devout believer, serve on many committees in my church and was also an officer. Since this grueling addiction and begging God for help to no avail, I have not set foot in a church in almost 10 years and struggle daily to get out of bed w…[Read more]

    • Hi Simon. I’m sorry you feel so disconnected and alone. I’m really new here but the one thing that pushed me to sign up is God. I have faith he wants me to get through this. But I know it’s on His timeline. What I’m trying to do is not compare myself to the 18k jackpot winners but to those people that can do things, go places and enjoy life. Those…[Read more]

    • Hi Simone says. I know what you are saying about God and relating and this gambling addiction. I’ve spoke with God many times , promised God I will stop gambling. Asked for help.
      I really believe God wants me to find the strength within myself to stop gambling. Which I have I have less desire to gamble than I have had since I started. I know I…[Read more]

      • I was gambling thirty years ago at a horse track.
        I said please god during a race. The man sitting next to me that I had seen many times at the track told me God isn’t there to help. He explained to me that the addiction is evil and that we are giving ourselves to the devil when we choose to gamble. I believe he was correct. Everything good is G…[Read more]

    I just threw the Purpose Driven Life book in the trash!!! If this is part of God’s perfect plan for me, he must not like me very much or has to be an evil being. This is beyond horrible and I’m tired of praying and asking for help with no response. Prayed for help with finances and addiction and he gave me covid instead!

    Hello, I’m new here. I’m struggling really bad with my addiction. I’ve read through many of the comments/tips here and a lot focus on God/spiritual healing. I really hope there is something else because I am having a terrible time finding faith in a God that allowed me to get to this point and I have begged him for almost 10 years for help, to no…[Read more]

    • Hi Simon
      Your post reminds me of a story of a fellow sitting on the roof of his house during a flood and praying to God to help him. And when a boat of rescuers come along and offer to take him to dry land he says no thanks I am waiting for God to save me. Or in other words your finding this site is most likely God sending you a message as to…[Read more]

      • I think you need more determination and faith to get through subway surfers this difficult period. Remember, no matter what happens, you still have your parents and family by your side, try to fight until the end.
