The journey of recovery can feel incredibly daunting. Fear constantly whispers in our ear, telling us that we aren’t strong enough to stay sober, that we will eventually fail, and that our weakness will destroy us. And the truth is, if we rely only on ourselves, we will fail. But God commands us not to fear or be dismayed. Why? Because we do not rely on our own flimsy willpower anymore. He promises to step into our weakness, strengthen us, and personally uphold us with His righteous right hand. You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through life. When you feel powerless, you simply lean your full weight on His strength. Our weakness is no longer a liability; it is the perfect canvas for His power. |
