My gambling crisis was for me a spiritual crisis. I was angry with God for quite a few things. Slowly over time the anger dissipated mostly through illness manifesting and I decided Jesus, the master healer was my higher power. In him all things r possible. It isn’t gods fault, we have free will and asking him to take that away is somewhat fruitless. I,knew I would die and be on the street if I continued gambling. I shut the door one day at a time and you can too. God is not a punishing God, we do that enough ourselves. He is a loving father in a life where many people don’t have that. God can’t stop you from gambling but you can with gods help. It comes when we admit we are powerless over gambling and go out and seek support through the fellowship.of GA or elsewhere. But we cannot stop without support. For me right now it is here and I occasionally go,to,GA. When we gamble and we love gambling we are often punishing ourselves. There isn’t a big win trucker because when compulsive gamblers win they lose it all again and more. That is it’s nature and we continue to go down, and fall further each time. God does love you trucker and when we enter into recovery it is thy will and not my will be done.
God wants what’s best for you trucker and you can do,it,one day at a time.
