Addicted for 16 Years...
I always knew I was destructive in my lifestyle, but until recently I was unaware of how bad things had gotten. I never realized that my lifestyle and Satan’s lies were the reason I was never open to God, my sin had separated me from God.
I thought I could correct my actions with other treatment centers, but I never considered turning to God.
Since being in this program I now know that this is not an incurable disease, this was just some bad choices I made trying to cope with life, I need to accept and take responsibility for my choices. Also, a major part of my stress and anxiety everything, we become use to trying to be in control which in turn makes it difficult to turn all aspects of our life over to the care of God. We have to have faith that God will take care of everything.
Once we turn over our will and life to the care of God, we will experience serenity.
Also, it is okay to have doubts we just need to ask for understanding. We can no longer go on our own understanding, but we have to seek Gods guidance. When it comes to my sins, I always thought some of my sins were unforgivable that my heart and soul was tainted. However, God forgives all sin no matter how big or small. All we have to do is open our hearts to him and ask for the forgiveness we seek and crave and finally we have to accept His forgiveness meaning we forgive ourselves.
