There are so many wonderful stories of hope in recovery. So many victories and stories of success. However, most of us had to be totally broken before we really got serious about living.

Being broken is a good thing though it can be so painful you would think you could not get through it. Nevertheless, it is when we are totally broken that God can work with us.

We are fragile people who think that we are strong.

The power does not come in strength but in weakness and brokenness. A contrite heart. A heart that seeks not its own way but comes to a place where it understands total powerlessness.

Then and only then are we willing to allow God to shape and mold us.

Are you broken yet? If not you may still have a ways to go before you realize that you are powerless. If this is the case, why not walk thought it with God. He will not drop you. However, we must become willing to be 100% honest with Him. We must want to get well. If we are, still thinking we can do, things are own way even just a little then we are far from being broken.

Blessings and Progress to All

This week I will search my heart and get honest with myself. Am I willing to be broken before God and let go of all of me? If I am not, or if I have not had enough abuse from the world, myself and the alcohol and dope, then I will have to live or die with the consequences.

Hard questions but they must be answered.
