Recovery begins as we honestly face our failures, our wrongdoing and our self-destructive choices. For people who have tried very, very hard to be very, very good, facing reality can be painful work.
Ever find yourself caught between what you want to believe and what's actually true? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio,' Monty Dale Meyer, or the Monty'man, dives deep into the tricky waters of honesty and self-deceit. His meditorial, a blend of meditation and editorial, spans just 3 to 15 minutes but packs a punch with its faith-based insights on overcoming life-controlling issues like addiction and codependency.
Sponsored by Curt & Debbie Palmer and ExactNature.com, this episode isn't just about pointing out where we go wrong. Monty'man explores how socially acceptable behaviors, like perfectionism, can mask deeper issues of self-deceit. He argues that only by being brutally honest with ourselves can we truly grow and change. Compassion and forgiveness, especially from a higher power, play crucial roles in this journey.
Monty'man also stresses the importance of making a fearless inventory of our lives—digging deep to uncover those layers of self-deceit we've built up over time. Throughout his talk, he shares personal prayers and reflections, weaving in his faith as a cornerstone of the recovery process. To wrap things up on a high note, the episode features the uplifting song 'I Thank God' by Maverick City Music.
The lyrics echo Monty'man's message, highlighting gratitude and the transformative power of faith in overcoming addiction. If you're on the lookout for inspiration and practical advice on your recovery journey, this episode offers a heartfelt guide to facing reality and finding compassion.
