This Thursday is Linda’s Testimony!

Come listen how God has restored and blessed her life as a result of surrendering her life to his.

“I signed up for a Bible study here called “Life’s Healing Choices,” based on the eight principles of CR.  I learned some painful truths about myself.  For example, instead of expecting men to heal my hurts,   I learned that hope and healing come only through Jesus.  At the end of the study, our leader suggested that we go to CR and sign up for a step study.  I didn’t waste any time!    

     My first step study, was a turning point.  I finally began believing the truth of God’s Word.  God does love me—even when I don’t love myself.  I also began to understand that I don’t have to be perfect—in fact, I can’t be.  But when I fall down, God is right there to help me back up.     

     The step 4 inventory was eye-opening.  I had never heard of love-and relationship-addiction, but my sponsor said I should be the poster child for it.     Now I began walking in light.  I made prayer and Bible reading a priority and  started turning my hurts over to the Lord.

       I have now been involved in 5 Step Studies.  Jesus keeps revealing things I need to surrender.  I turn things over to Him every day, and I often fall flat on my face.  He never gives up on me, though.  I’ve taken many blue chips…and that’s okay!

   Now I give back because of what Jesus has done for me.  Several years ago, I went on a mission trip to the Amazon.  I am a greeter and an Open Share Group leader here at CR. ” 

 

 

Recovery Reminder

Principle 2: Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover.

“Happy are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4

Step 2: We came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
