Thank you for this message to us as it is especially time full! If you have been awake and involved in sharing the truth with others wether about Christ or this spiritual war you feel exhausted or broken at times and must throw yourself on the Lord for strength, wisdom and guidance. We are surrounded by people we love who are rejecting us and the truth and it requires all of the above and forgiveness. As we face a future in this life which is unknown only through faith and grace do we survive and go forward at times when each step is unknown! Thank you Fren.

Beautifully written, timely too. I don’t like seeing people here in the comments describing their hard times. Only because I don’t like to see people hurting. But then again, would we all be here if we were not hurting? Look at what our pain has done! I need to learn to not resist pain, this piece here is the perfect guide! Amazing!!

Hitting rock bottom was the best thing to experience! He’s been with me every step of the way, waiting and I was a wretched person. How could He love me? How could he forgive me? How could I forgive myself? It’s been a journey and once I surrenders my will and my life to my savior Jesus Christ only then could I recover. I’m nothing without Him. Life was meaningless and cruel and I didn’t want to live anymore. It was this attempt that brought me to Him. I can honestly say there was divine intervention. It’s hard to imagine that kind of love. Especially when addiction made selfish and it’s all about me me me. God’s grace picked me up and I depend on Him and His word to guide me in my recovery. Just because the substance is no longer manipulating my actions and behaviors it doesn’t mean I am healed.

This subversion of our mental health system and addiction services, in my opinion, has been detrimental to addicts everywhere. It’s harm reduction. If I no longer drink a fifth of booze a day but only half, well we succeeded in our goal to reduce the intake, but not the healing of our souls. I don’t know an addict who hasn’t gone to meetings, worked the steps, chaired meetings, become a sponsor and shared their experience strength and hope have a meaningful relationship with God. They are miserable and either they relapse and never come back or they end up in jail or other institutions but saddest of all is they die without ever knowing what a relationship with God is. The Biden administration doesn’t care about the useless addict living on the streets or they would not use this module for recovery.

I’m sorry, I didn’t realize I was going to go there but a burning desire pushed me forward ✝️

Thank you for this inspirational message! Keep them coming. You may never know how many people you have lifted up!
