"Lord, What is this thorn in my flesh?" Chapter 8: Gambling

Today I interviewed people with gambling addictions. I believe and know from experience the effects gambling has on an individual, family, finances, and communities. I spent almost a year battling this Thorn in the Flesh.  I hope that this chapter can help prevent and deliver others from this curse, and realize Gods plan for your life.  When you feel like there's no one there for you, or even to help you in a time of financial need.  You must realize that He is! He is Jehovah Jireh!

I have a few more interviews with some Pastors and then I will complete this chapter soon.

If you have any insights or comments that you would like to add please do so.  This like all the topics/chapters is a very serious subject.
