And Freedom Rings
Defective relations along the way have been many a cause of my woes….Not just the relationship with family and friends but God. The further into my addiction I fell, the more difficult it was to hear the calls of my Heavenly Father…
Willingness to submit to God’s will was an awkward thing for me. In the beginning it was a conscious and painstaking effort. Then my awareness of this stirring became more of a discomfort and unease. I was self-righteously right on all accounts in every relationship. This only caused more strife in my life.
Once I came to a point of complete brokenness, I had nothing left to interfere with the voice of God. Through my powerlessness, I came to believe a power greater than myself and I could hear that still small voice reaching out to me. (1 Kings 19:11-13) A tremendous love beckoned me. (1 Jn 4:10)
I had been my own worst enemy.
A few pills won’t hurt anyone….But it did.
For a moment in my brief life, I have resolved there is still time… time to clear the wreckage. I sift through the pains of yesterday. I pick up the pieces of scattered sorrows, some I leave.
Discomfort and unrest have now caused me to take action…my unmanageable life is now lived through the love of God…
There is a choice now for I am free.
And Freedom Rings….
Beautifully Awkward
