This is a review of the Redemption question about the Natural Man:
The main thing I’ve been thinking about lately related to this question is simple “Did you think to pray?”
When I pray and have prayer on my mind continually, things just go better – period. When I try to do things on my own or simply “don’t feel like” submitting my will, I struggle at best.
The ONLY way I’m going to be able to maintain sobriety and overcome my addictions is through Jesus Christ, the Atonement, and submitting my will to God.
I’ve outlined above ways I can do that – now I just need to be consistent and accountable – not just all talk.
I’m grateful for the chance I have to write in my journal and “see” my feelings on paper.
I’m finding that writing things out is really helpful in my recovery.
Things I’m Thankful For
- going on a date with Becky that I planned and prepared (including the babysitter)
- working as a team today with the kids
- having patience with the kids and talking with them on their level without getting angry
- getting another question review done
- praying when I went in to Wal Mart that I could keep my chin up and being successful
Hasta Luego!
Nate
