We all
need to recover from something in this life! Look at what Jesus had
to say on the subject in Matthew 5:3-10, Jesus said:
3 “Blessed
are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed
are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed
are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed
are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be
filled.
7 Blessed
are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
8 Blessed
are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
9 Blessed
are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
10 Blessed
are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the
kingdom of heaven.
Consider
these Eight Recovery Principles based on the Beatitudes:
Realize that
you’re not God (5:3)

Allow recovery to happen in your life today. Be
everything that Jesus desires of us. Amen?
