Last night’s lesson for Celebrate Recovery was ADMIT. There were a couple of great reminders in this lesson I don’t ever want to forget. One is the importance of admitting our struggle/habit/fear/anxiety/whatever is troubling us. The other is admitting to the right person. One of the guys in share group spoke of his admitting his struggle to the “wrong group” in his 20’s and he was severely judged and the struggle was thrown repeatedly in his face. It was when he came to CR a decade later that he found the “right people” to admit to. Here he finds no judgment and instead, he finds support. This has been SO TRUE for myself.

It is sad how much bondage we let ourselves live with throughout our lives so we won’t be judged only to find how much freedom there is when we finally admit and it is with the right person. Call that person a friend, sponsor, ally, warrior, it doesn’t matter. What is important is that we have someone we can admit to. James 5:16 tells us that admitting to a righteous man and we will be healed. That has been so true!
