I think you have found the key. I believe God gives us trials to bring us closer to him. Sometimes we have a hard time seeing what he wants us to do, and sometimes we do the wrong things. If we choose to ignore him we usually get another chance to go through those trials again until we listen to what he is saying.

Believe me, I didn't listen in my 1st M, but he has sure got my attention now. I am a classic example of one hard headed person. Guess that's why I got the chance to feel that load of bricks dropping on me again.

It sounds form you last post that you have a really good perspective on what you need to do and where you are going. Don't get discourage if you backslide, it takes time (and practice) for changes to become real and lasting.
