God allowed it for a reason, and he helps us get sober, Lila, I believe, because he has a job for us, not just to get us to stop a behavior absolutely, and that's how I stay sober.
Picture this: you're in a marriage where alcohol isn't just a part of life, it's the center of it. In this episode of 'Real Recovery', Bill and George sit down with their friend Lyla, who shares her powerful story of living through such a marriage. Lyla's journey is a testament to the strength it takes to reach out for help and the profound changes that can come from turning to faith.
She opens up about how she initially struggled with codependency, feeling as though her husband's addiction was dragging them both down. But it was through her involvement in NA and watching others rely on God that she began to see the light at the end of the tunnel. One of the most striking parts of Lyla's story is her realization that recovery wasn't just about stopping a behavior; it was about finding a new purpose.
She talks about the importance of conducting a moral inventory and meeting people where they are in their recovery journey. Lyla also emphasizes the role of counselors, stressing the need to find one who is supportive and unbiased. Throughout the episode, Lyla and the hosts discuss the significance of surrendering control and trusting in a higher power. Her story is not just inspiring but also offers practical advice for those facing similar struggles.
Lyla's words, 'God allowed it for a reason, and he helps us get sober because he has a job for us,' resonate deeply, reminding us that faith can be a cornerstone in the path to sobriety. This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear Lyla's incredible journey from chaos to clarity and discover how faith can transform lives.
