God is always with me. I need never face my problems alone. Together with God, any difficulty can be worked out and overcome.
Life in recovery is not without its problems. Often, because we are sober and dealing with our problems, we think we have more of them than when we were running in our addiction. Fear, worry, and frustration arise within us because we don’t have a history of successfully facing our problems.
The Lord himself will go ahead of you. He will be with you. He will never leave you. He’ll never desert you. So don’t be afraid. Don’t lose hope. (Deuteronomy 31:8 NIRV)
God made the universe. He set the sun to come up every morning and to go down each night. The God who controls the power of the ocean, who protects a pretty flower as it grows through a crack in the sidewalk, and who feeds each little bird, will certainly take care of us and the problems we are facing.
Our lives and circumstances matter to God. Life in recovery is about believing that God is always with us, working on our behalf. With this assurance, we can trust Him to help us do the next right thing.
Prayer: Thank you Heavenly Father that I don’t have to face my problems alone. Help me to have faith and trust that, together with You, any difficulty can be faced, worked out, and overcome. Amen
