December 4 Chp 105 v 4 TWELVE STEPPING WITH STRENGTH FROM THE PSALMS

Search for the Lord and for his strength ,continually seek Him.

STEP 2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

How bad do want your freedom , as bad as you want that next fix. You are willing to search the Bad lands high and low trying to find your fix .All of sudden you get caught up in some crazy sh.. and you drop too your knees in the holding cell crying to God ,promising you wont do it again , if He helps you get out of it . As soon as you get out the prayer is forgotten and your at it again. Why are we so hell bent on self destruction. Will we escape this chemical hell before its too late .It is a yes for me and my freedom came when I got serious with God . My drug had a super natural unbreakable grip on my life. The more I used the stronger that grip got. Once you get so buried in your addiction the only thing in this world and outta this world that can break that grip is the GOD you were crying to in that cell .Some times that chemical hell can be used by GOD to make you well. Addiction is the only battle we can win by giving up .

(2 Corinthians 1:10) We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. On Him we have set our hope that He will continue to deliver us.
