Do you like your eggs deviled or "son"y side up?


What good did I do today? In what areas did I blow it today?
Take time to do a daily inventory. Just ask God!
How did I do?___________________Listen to God.


Where are you now!

No matter what you have been through, or what you are about to be facing. Get this. We could never have made it on our own power. Have you made the decision to turn you life and will over to the care of God.

JOHN 8:36 " The truth will set you Free."

snap






snap I'm Yours...

End of your rope?

what do you do when your at the end of your rope. About to snap. Cry out to Jesus! Reach out to Jesus. Jesus!

My Grace is enough for you.

As we grow as Christians and as we grow in recovery, we want to follow the guidance and directions of Jesus Christ. As we grow with Him we see ourselves Begin to model His teachings and model His ways. We want to become more like Him.

MODEL GOD'S GRACE.....HOW?

2 Corinthians 12:9-10
"but He said to me, My grace is enough for you. When you are weak, My power is made perfect in you.' So I am very happy to brag about my weaknesses. Then Christ's power can live in me. For this reason I am happy when I have weaknesses, insults, hard times, sufferings, and all kinds of troubles for Christ. Because when I am weak,I then I am truly strong.

Our Recovery depends on us getting this,Christ's Love and Grace for each of us.

Practice Grace today.......

Gods Grace is .

This week at C.R. is all about Grace. I am reminded this week of the grace that God continues to show to me, and the challenge that I have every day to pass that grace on to others. Pass it on even when it's not what you want to do. Pray for Gods Grace to continue in all our lives. He is really all we need.

Celebrate Recovery is about learning to forgive and learning to accept forgiveness. One of the biggest stumbling blocks to recovery is forgiveness. How can we accept Gods Forgiveness and not be able to forgive ourselves.

Jesus, and the cross are all about Gods Forgiveness.

Forgiveness

I order to be completely free from our resentments, anger, fears and shame we need to give and accept forgiveness in all arias of our life.

If God himself can forgive us, how can we hold back our forgiveness, even forgiving ourself.

Forgiveness is Gods answer for the broken.
