Gary...that is SO encouraging. : )

For every character flaw (sin) that God enables me to drop, I know that there must be an asset to develop. For example, if I was a using jerk, when I just abstain from using I become a clean jerk. Whenever God asks me to remove a certain sin from my life, He offers me a replacement i n order to renew my mind. Praise God for the process He gives!

John - thank you for bringing a word about your process. Platitudes frustrate me. Actual step by step directions are so helpful. I feel like many of our members here are trying to survive with just church people...but really, no one gets us except...well...us! Celebrate Recovery is a powerful community. Connecting with believers who rely on Jesus for their very lives makes a huge difference. This is not a "me" journey, its a "we" journey. May we all find our "people" and learn to live and love with freedom.

Ah yes, renewing our minds and creating a new heart. The way that I am trying to acomplish that, first I can not do it without God's help through Jesus and the Holy spirit. Where my past I saturated my life with all the negitives of this world, now I saturate my life with Prayer and the study of Gods word. I now saturate my life with all the positives I can use. I contnualy work the twelve steps and 8 principles of Celebrate Recovery. Do I do ths perfectly? No but I do forget what is behind and press on toward the prize wich is eternity with God.

May God bless you all! There is No other way to real peace. The enemy continues to try and take back his hold but with Christ all things are possible even defeating satan! Thank you all for being here!

Yes...unity and fellowship...so critical for every believers walk. But there is more to this than just not drinking or using. Its about transformation of our thinking, our motives, our purpose. This not always easy. How does transformation happen for you?
