When I open my heart up to God and say: father, I thank you that Christ is my righteousness, I praise you that the troubles I am going through are not a judgment from you, but are your way of helping me to draw close to you when I say that, in my faith to God, I am speaking into my human nature.
Imagine feeling truly at home, safe, and protected, even in the midst of battling addiction. That's the powerful message Colin Cook shares in this episode of 'How it Happens'. Titled 'Adopted into Our Father's Home', the episode is a heartfelt exploration of how faith can be a transformative force against addiction, whether it's alcohol, drugs, food, or even obsessive worry.
Drawing from Romans 8:15, Cook discusses the profound idea that we are adopted into a divine family, receiving a spirit of adoption rather than a spirit of fear. This isn't just about religious doctrine; it's about finding a loving and familiar presence in our lives through faith. Cook passionately explains how this divine spirit of faith can intercept our human nature, which is often riddled with fear and doubt. But what does this mean for someone struggling with addiction?
Cook breaks it down in a way that's both inspiring and practical. He encourages listeners to engage with their faith, speaking to God as a loving Father who offers not just redemption but a sense of home and eternal comfort. This episode isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding a deeper sense of belonging and peace. Listeners will find themselves reflecting on their own lives and struggles, gaining a renewed sense of hope and strength.
Whether you're deeply rooted in your faith or just beginning your spiritual journey, this episode offers valuable insights into how faith can be a powerful tool in overcoming life's challenges. Don't miss this chance to feel inspired and supported on your path to recovery.
