Series on 12 Step Wisdom (Part 1 of 3)
At some point, our lives are unmanageable and we need help. When we want to turn away from sin and our struggles, we turn to God to save and heal us. We are given clarity to open our eyes and see our life in a new or different way. And while we’re accepting reality as it is, we recognize what we can and cannot control, we realize what is asked of us everyday. When we live that reality one moment at a time, that’s the time we can accept life in a particular way and enjoy it!
This episode talks about the Serenity Prayer and what it means to be in recovery and seek healing and conversion.

We have this tendency that we want to fix or clean-up certain things first before we let the Lord in. We are afraid that our place, our lives are messy—that it can be too much for anyone even for God to handle. But God is NOT panicking, he’s completely in control. He’s not afraid or scandalized of how messy our lives are…

Realities Not Fantasies
We think we’re most free when we can be in control. “I’m free when I get up every day and have control over my life and circumstances.” That’s not Catholic freedom, according to Jacque Philippe, but it is accepting reality as it is. We struggle with freedom because it’s hard to accept our weaknesses, and it’s pretty difficult to accept…

More Than My Sin

But, our spiritual life should not be limited by these serious sins. We are invited to be with the Lord and let him teach us about our hearts in the place of sin.
