Guarding Your Heart: Self-Control and Faith in Addiction Recovery

Guard Your Heart. This implies that you are responsible for what comes and goes out of your heart. You are responsible for what feeling you want to have from your heart. Nobody not even the Supreme God will guard your heart for you.
How often do we consider the state of our hearts when dealing with addiction? In this episode of Addicts' Corner, Oluwatobiloba Davies takes a deep dive into Proverbs 4:23, which advises us to guard our hearts diligently because our lives flow from them. Davies passionately argues that the emotions we harbor—whether love, peace, hate, or envy—shape our realities and actions. With a blend of spirituality and practical advice, he emphasizes that self-control and faith are crucial for overcoming addiction.
Childhood experiences and negative emotions can often be the root causes of addictive behaviors, and Davies doesn't shy away from discussing these sensitive topics. He stresses the importance of daily practices like prayer and self-reflection to keep our hearts in check. By taking responsibility for what we allow into our hearts, we can create a life filled with positivity and resilience.
This episode offers a heartfelt reminder that while faith provides the foundation, it's up to us to build on it with conscious effort and self-awareness.
