12 STEP RECOVERY DEVOTIONAL

STEP 4 FAMILY INFLUENCE.....God said in NEH 9 "Our kings, leaders, priests, and ancestors did not obey your Law or listen to the warnings in your commands and laws. So now today we are slaves in the land of plenty that you gave our ancestors for their enjoyment!"  

The psychology here is pretty clear. Our family of origin  and others  in authority over us  when we were children, have all affected us greatly and in a sense we are not our fault! God also says in Proverbs that as children are trained up, that is how they will be when they are old.

When I came to Christ I became HIS child and now I am growing up in Him.... I am a brand new person and my life is a clean slate for Him to write on. Now he is training me up through His Word and His grace and all the tools of recovery He has given us. God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are my new family of origin and so are my beloved family who are also in Christ! Thanks for listening!

The best thing I did in Recovery was go back and walk through my family of origin. Uncovering the hurts, habits and hang-ups did not undo me, but rather set me free to mature and grow up in God. Today I am not afraid of my past but rather stronger as a result of it. Thank you for listening.
