Others

Luke 18:9 Jesus told a story to some people who were sure they were right with God. They looked down on everybody else.

 Recovery is never as isolated experience. It involves God and it involves other people.

The Bible tells us in Matthew 22 the greatest commandment is to love God and the second which is just as important is to love others.

I have a confession to make: When I was deep amid my addictions and compulsions I didn’t care about anyone else.  I was selfish and
self-centred.

Through faith based recovery I discovered the importance of other people in my life. I would not be here today if not for the people who prayed for me, cared for me and mentored me in what it means to live a God-guided life.

• Who are the important people in your recovery journey?

Prayer: God help me today to treat others the way you would treat them
