Embracing Meekness and Honesty: Keys to Recovery

The constituent part of meekness is great strength, under precise control. I mean- and you can certainly exemplify that- even if you're not physically imposing.
Ever thought about how embracing meekness could be a game-changer in your recovery journey? In this episode of 'On the Battlefield', Fr. Joseph Collins and Fr. Michael Marcantoni dive into the power of meekness as described in the Beatitudes. They paint a vivid picture of meekness not as weakness, but as great strength held under precise control. It's a concept that can transform how you approach recovery and life itself.
The hosts also highlight the critical role of rigorous honesty in overcoming addiction. By facing our own darkness and sinfulness, we open the door to true healing. This is where the mystery of confession comes into play. Fr. Joseph and Fr. Michael explain how confession isn't about fixing ourselves but about seeking God's help to find genuine healing and bear the fruit of repentance. Community support is another cornerstone they discuss. Addiction thrives in isolation, but recovery flourishes in community.
The hosts share personal stories and practical advice on how to lean on others and build a supportive network. If you're looking for ways to face your own shadows and embrace the strength of true meekness, this episode offers a wealth of wisdom and encouragement.
