My name is Lorena I am a grateful believer in Jesus Christ
who is recovering from lust, pornography, self-sufficiency, resentment and I
struggle with food, anger, bad thoughts among other things.
Before starting the Celebrate Recovery Program I
didn’t even know what it meant to be in DENIAL.
I related the word Recovery Program with drugs and alcoholism. I never imagine to analyze my past honestly
or to do a moral and balanced inventory of my life.
Being able to find a recovery group was a great help
for me. I found a place where I could
share with other women the real issues in my life. Not feeling judged but
heard, them not trying to fix me but to support me and most of all the
anonymity and confidentiality in the Celebrate Recovery group gave me the trust
to continue.
Now I understand sharing my secrets, fights and bad
habits with others is part of God’s plan in my process of recovery. I have learned to trust in my Higher Power
Jesus Christ and consciously choose to give not only my life but also my will
to God. Constantly examine and confess my faults to God and someone I
trust.
Today I feel
free from masks, free from lies, free from guilt and live what says the verse
in
Philippians 1:6 being confident of
this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it
until the day of Jesus Christ.
Thank you
for letting me share.
