Step Two Came To Believe
At some point in our lives we became aware that we were powerless over our dependencies and that our lives had become unmanageable. By some miracle we found ourselves in rooms where we were told the next step to a healthy life was, “Coming to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.” The challenge then is, how do we come to believe? How long does it take and what is involved in the healing and restoration process?
God is with us each step of our journey and assures us of His love, His care, and all the help that we need.
It is God’s desire to restore us to a life giving and satisfying relationship with Him. As we seek God, we can ask Him for His direction and help for the journey of coming to believe He exists and will always be there for us in our times of trouble.
Without faith it is impossible to please God. Those who come to God must believe that he exists. And they must believe that he rewards those who look to him. (Hebrews 11:6 NIRV)
Prayer: Heavenly Father, Forgive me for living so long in the misery of my own making. I have come to believe that You care for me and that You have the power to do what needs doing to restore me to sanity. Help me to trust in Your unfailing love for me and in the truth that only in You will I find the peace and security that I am seeking. Amen
