My Higher Power... God 🌹

Went to Celebrate Recovery at my church today, that marks 5 straight months.. oh actually I missed one, i was sick that day.

Anyways.. to see that community grow, and to see more people show up and be vulnerable is God.

But, to listen deeply to others, and have the feeling that there is no judgement casted by anyone.

Its truly remarkable what Jesus is doing. For me and for others.

We eat, we open, we laugh, we cry.

And the kids play within the Church. Laughing and enjoying there time.

What a blessing it is. Seeing people go from quiet, to truly opening in the the name of Jesus, and watching them grow over time.

…

God is great, in Jesus mighty name.

The biblical step work, I do, is in the 8 Beatitudes.

This video tells the principles that where based on.

The steps can be looked up, its like the 12 steps but just focused more in Jesus name.

Have a good day, to those who believe and don’t.

It’s always a choice.

Happy Sunday. :latin_cross:

Many ideas stem from the concepts that we must let go of this world, to help one another free ourself of the desires.

But, it’s tough to do by ourselves.

So, we pray, talk with and listen to God, to the word.

Addiction was an attempt to escape or to attempt to find pleasure as our time here.

But, true Joy, not happiness, because happiness is ever fleeting. But joy, joy with Jesus.

For he is our King, the one to help, full of Grace and love.

A daily moment, to turn our eyes to Jesus, to give thanks and to let him work through us.

To let him help us walk away from not only addiction.

But, Anger, self hate, bitterness and even our own negative thoughts and deeds.

I’ve been on this road for only 6 months, but as days go on, im getting closer to where God wants me to be.

Not I, but Him.

To any mistakes we make on this jouney, remember. Guilt and Shame come from the devil, but conviction to change and seek His word is from God.

I am not perfect, i never will be. But, i thank God for his grace as we seek help from Him, from my own sinful self.

This isn’t about anything, except my personal relationship with Jesus. My coming too.

Have a good day, everyone. To those who do and to those who don’t.

May peace and joy follow you this week.

Happy Sunday. :latin_cross:

God, this week, I will let go and simply trust you. For i know you will lead me farther than my own mind.

Sorry for letting saddness and anger control me this week.

And Jesus, thank you for getting me right.

Thank you for beating the demon of lust.

Day 15, but my foundation is based on Jesus’s strength, for where I am weak, He is strong.

I pray in Jesus name, I ask for this week to reveal all truths that my heart needs to see, for better or worse. And, grant me calmness when i feel anger or saddness.

I know God, you’re putting me on the path you see fit. For my own decisions lead me not only astray, but left my self worse off.

Thank you for another day of sobriety.

For it wasn’t me, it was You.

And, bless those who praise your name, and those who don’t this week.

Jesus Heals, and restores all that was lost.

In Jesus mighty name, Amen.

Bryce Crawford and Johnny Chang come together to talk the word of God.

I don’t get far into YouTube stuff and God, but I can’t express how good this was.

…

Had CR today, another solid day.

Not much to report here, but I can express that i am just so greatful for what God is doing in my life, just helping others and growing in that.

My early ideas as I’m still an early Christian.

Serving and helping others does bring me Joy. To help others, especially those who have a desire to seek his Glory.

Any conversation about God, is truly remarkable.

I don’t push, i just… follow God.

I simply just follow, because in my own ways, I destruct. I don’t know everything, and God’s grace and love will bring me further then my own willpower ever could. Further doesn’t mean what I obtain, it means Joy. Joy in God’s way.

Thank you for today.

In the mighty name of Jesus.

Amen.

Goodnight.

Feeling extremely blessed and grateful for having God in my life. That even when i struggled to believe, he remained faithful and waited until I was ready. He never closed the doors on me. I feel thankful for all Hes done for me and my family and how He works thru people here on Earth to do his work. I pray that He guides me in my thinking and acting today. That I strive to do His will. That I am patient and follow His timeline for when things happen. That I do the next right thing. I pray that He watches over all of you as well in ur recovery journeys. Let Him show us how to stay clean and sober for today!

Just attended church (online church service through Elevation Church) and thr sermon was amazing! Brought tears to my eyes. God is so SO good! It was about handing Him the plans. How we as human beings have many plans that we have for our life, but ultimately God’s plan will prevail. Obedience comes before details. God will not divulge all the details of His plan for us. First comes Obedience and then the details (the blueprint) of our lives.

Question:
Im struggling to determine what is Gods plan for me? Like how do i know if my plan that ive set out for my life, is in line with Gods will for me?

I think about my health goals and how Ive struggled immensely with them for years. Is it in Gods plan for me to reach these goals? Or am i fighting something that isnt in line with Gods will for me. Maybe Im not meant to be as fit as I want to be. Maybe God has other plans for me. Idk. I feel like God would want me to take care of myself. What is my purpose i wonder?

To my early understanding in biblical ideas, is that purpose will come. Lay no pressure on yourself. Jesus will call each and everyone of us, in His time.

What are we called to do? Right now, just believe and have a deep relationship with the Lord. That’s all he called us to do, to let him renew our mind, our body and spirit.

To follow Jesus daily, and he will provide what our hearts desired. Love, joy, hope.

It’s not in our biggest works that he lays for us, but our humblness with learn with the glory of God.

The Devil will say, you’re not doing enough, you’re not fulfilling God, he will lay pressure to what you where you think you need to be.

Even on my road to 500, maybe it wasn’t for me, but i get up, mend a closer relationship to Jesus and do my due diligence. He will take care of the rest.

You set fourth and let him work in you, and you will feel joy.

Days go on and sure, you will feel many emotions, but God in joy, is freedom in His word.

Our job is to just let that happen and eventually new doors will open, in His timing.

That episode was great, for anyone that has an hour.

Just so good, you can skip the first 15-20 minutes though.

In Jesus mighty name

Goodnight

Oh, i wanted to add, Jesus really worked in me. Helped me truly release some mental blocks, took a dive into a few things and God paved the way.

This is truly what Jesus is about.

That deep, inner healing casting out shame, guilt, and anger.

Remember it’s about conviction and reliance on the Lord. For he is there always, even when you didn’t know, even in your brokeness of the darkest days, calling you. Praying over you.

The judgement of yourself washes away, into your new body filled with the spirit.

Joy, Hope, Rest.
