As I wrote yesterday’s entry I expressed my nervousness about speaking to the bible study group. Well, it seemed to go well. It was funny to do the phone session I had at 8:00 am. The young man was seeking help to deal with his anxiety and overthinking about things in his life. I told him I felt as though I was counseling him with advise I needed for my own issues. God sure has a way of bringing His Light into what seems as darkness until these issues are brought out into the open by expressing them to someone else.

Last night at Celebrate Recovery we had a couple of new men attending–both young men. Each one of them had recently had their struggles brought into light and now they were reaching out. I had the opportunity to do their 101 (session to acquaint new comers with all that Celebrate Recovery has to offer). I was deeply moved by their needs and their desire to step out of their old behaviors to hopefully find freedom. They both expressed their fear in coming but how welcome they felt and the safety they also felt in sharing why they’d come. Those are critical elements we always want to have in place for any and all who come no matter how long they’ve been attending.

There is nothing like seeing God at work. I don’t care what the issues are which one brings out into the open, if they are doing so seeking God’s help, He is always there ready to offer it. We just need to take that one needed step–seek help. God simply waits for us to knock for the door does open when we do. GOD IS AMAZINGLY GOOD!
