If you are trying to design a better future, try this one thing . . .
Sow today what you want to see tomorrow.
Robert Louis Stevenson said, “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you sow.” And Scripture says, “Whatever one sows, that will he also reap” (Galatians 6:7).
Sow today what you want to see tomorrow.
Let’s get practical. For your recovery, this means doing the hard work that nobody else will see, not because that will keep you sober today (though it will help), but because it will set you up for long-term sobriety.
Sow today what you want to see tomorrow.
Recovery Step: This works in recovery and all parts of life. Sow today what you want to see tomorrow.

Mark and Beth Denison, married for 36 years, launched There’s Still Hope as a national movement to call men and women into lives of sexual integrity. Their ministry offers 90-day recovery plans for addicts and one-on-one and group coaching for addicts and their spouses. TSH also produces resources for pastors and churches to confront the porn epidemic that is destroying so many lives.
Dr. Denison was a senior pastor for over 30 years, NBA chaplain, and board chairman at Houston Baptist University three times. With a Master’s Degree in Addiction Recovery, Mark is a certified PSAP and active member of the American Association of Christian Counselors.
Mark has written four books on recovery: Porn in the Pew, 365 Days to Sexual Integrity, A 90-Day Recovery Guide, and 40 Days to Porn-Free Living. His latest book, Jesus on the 12 Steps, will be released later this year.
