God > Our struggles 🙏 This morning #joycemeyer reminded me 👉 "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us," Ephesians 3:20 In #CelebrateRecovery, participants work through 8 principles to find healing and restoration. Ephesians 3:20 can be a powerful verse for folks like us in recovery because it highlights God's immense power working within us. We're often stuck in cycles of addiction or pain, but God's power can break those chains. God is beyond our imagination! Recovery can feel impossible, but God can do more than we ask or imagine. The Holy Spirit empowers us to walk through recovery and live freely. God's power is at work within us! In recovery, we often feel powerless, but Ephesians 3:20 reminds us God's got way more power than our struggles. He can do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine. In Recovery Programs like Celebrate Recovery or AA, or Never Alone Recovery , NA, Al-Anon , GA, OA, or National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV) like me, we can tap into that power! Let God work within you to heal, restore, and empower your journey. #GodWorks #HolySpirit #healingpower #recoveryworks #safeplace #celebrate #surrendering #Amen

Surrending To God's Purpose Despite the Trauma #Powerless lesson 2 #CelebrateRecovery 👉 "Happy are those who know they are spiritual poor" Matthew 5:3 As humans, we often struggle to make sense of the pain and trauma we face. It can feel like our world is shattered, and we're left to pick up the pieces. But what if those broken pieces are exactly what God wants to use for His glory? Trauma & substance abuse can leave us feeling broken, unworthy, and unsure of our purpose. 👉 But God's love and purpose are not limited by our past or our pain. In fact, He often uses our brokenness to reveal His strength and beauty (2 Corinthians 12:9-10). Surrendering to God's purpose doesn't mean the pain disappears, but it means we trust Him to walk with us through it. It means we offer our broken pieces to Him, asking Him to mend and use them for His glory. #Reminder God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). 👉He doesn't abandon us in our pain. He can turn our mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11). 👉 His purpose can bring joy and hope. #today 1. Acknowledge the pain...Bring your trauma to God in prayer. 2. Offer it to Him... Ask God to use your brokenness for His purpose. 3. Seek support... Surround yourself with people who point you to God. #Surrendering to God's purpose doesn't mean we've "got it all together." 👉It means we're trusting Him with what we don't understand. Lord, enable us to continue on our journey of recovery. It gets so hard sometimes and we can't do it alone. Thank you for your 🎗️ reminders in Your Word keeping us on track 🙏🙏🙏 #Amen #GodsWord #recovery102 #safeplace #celebrate #life #re
