Psalms 13:3 Lord my God, look at me and answer me. Give me new life, or I will die.

 For many of us, recovery is our last hope of living a normal life. For so long we have been caught up in the crisis and turmoil of recovery. Seeing no way out. Recovery is our hope of a fresh start. Of a life living in relationship with God and others are we were intended to.

Before we entered the recovery process our natures were sinful. We disobeyed, rebelled and ignored God and others. In recovery through making a conscious decision to let God help us change God has declared us not guilty. In doing so He does not take us out of the world or make us robots. The difference is pre-recovery we submitted to our sinful nature. Through recovery, God arms us to overcome it.

• How do you feel knowing and believing God has declared you not guilty and will provide all you need to overcome?

Prayer: Lord help me today to understand Your declaration over me.
