A different perspective               

Philippians 4:4 Always be joyful because you belong to the Lord. I will say it again. Be joyful.

No matter what is happening in and around you right now “be joyful.”

 We can be joyful in every circumstance. Seems strange I know that as we go through the process of changing everything about us and our lives we can have joy.

Our inner attitudes do not need to mirror our outward circumstances. We can take joy in knowing that no matter what happens from here on in the process of our recovery God has got this! He is with us, and He is not going to leave us on our own with nowhere to turn.

It’s easy to get discouraged in recovery or too take it all too seriously.  If you are not joyful because of what has done in your life till now maybe you need to change your perspective,

• Are you joyful about what God has done on your life till now?

Prayer: Lord help me to be joyful that You live in me and lead me today.
