Hopefully after writing this I will have a clearer understanding of what is best and necessary to my recovery, facing problems with everyday living. I desire to become acceptable responsible, and a productive person of my community. As I write this I can hear my significant other say the words “NO EZ WAYS” John. I ask God daily to forgive me for the wrong I’ve done and the wrongs I may do.
I’ve admitted to myself the need to forgive myself for the wrongs I’ve done, and mainly I can admit that I’ve forgiven those who have done me wrong.”For if we forgive men their trespasses my heavenly Father will also forgive me”, ”But if I do not forgive men their trespasses neither will my heaven Father forgive me my trespasses” Mathew 6:14-15. I’m writing to share with others in the attempt of being HONEST, OPEN-MINDEDNESS, and a WILLINGNESS to share my story. This humbling experience allows me, to get out of the way and let God do his work in my life. “For with the heart one believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:10 this is when I ask him daily to remove my short-comings and liabilities from my character defects. “But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil” II Thessalonians 3:3 also allowing me to ask him to strengthen my abilities for recovery. “Because I can do all thing through Christ who strengthens me.”Philippians 4:13.
This clearly encourages me to seek a personal relationship with God. Humbly asking him one day at a time to walk with me, to talk with me, to let my words be his words, and to let my spirit be in line with him, according to his will for me just for the day. “Trust in the Lord with all my heart; lean not on my own understanding. In all my ways acknowledge him, and he will direct my paths.” Proverbs 3:5
