God has given you all the tools necessary to secure your recovery. Paul said it like this: “God supplies seed to the sower” (2 Corinthians 9:10). The Holy Spirit has planted within you all that you need to begin the journey.
God has supplied you with the seed, but it’s up to you to do something with it.
The good news is that, no matter the carnage that your addiction may have left behind, your potential is unspeakable.
Robert Schuller had a great take on this. “Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in the seed.”
Recovery Step: You have more apples in your seed than you can imagine. God has created you for greatness. The next move is yours.
