Step one, you see, it gives me the opportunity to be free. God isn't talking about Susie or John, or billy or Bob... And if god can do a better job than what my plan is, maybe I'll use it, but otherwise I'm not doing this. I'm going to give god the chance to one-up me, but otherwise you know god's as powerless as me, because God's not giving me the outcome that I want, God's not delivering what I want him to deliver.
Ever thought admitting powerlessness could be the first step to freedom? In this episode of 'Recovery at Cokesbury', Mark Beebe shares his personal journey through Step One of the Twelve Steps. He discusses how acknowledging his own limitations wasn't a sign of defeat but a crucial step towards healing. Mark delves into the concept of idolatry and how it can hinder recovery, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own lives.
He also opens up about his spiritual journey, emphasizing how faith has been a cornerstone in his path to sobriety. The episode highlights the importance of community and accountability, reminding us that we don't have to walk this path alone. By the end, you'll see that surrendering isn't about giving up; it's about finding the strength to move forward with a renewed sense of purpose and connection to God.
