As a recovering co-dependent or addict, it can be hard watching those you love go through their own recovery. We wish we can just give advice and hope they follow it. However, all of us have to go through our own road to recovery so we can teach others. Watching those we love continue to make the same choices over and over again can be depressing but all we can do is pray for them. This is when we begin to feel powerless. How we handle that feeling is going to determine whether or not we will trust God. All we can do is ask God for His help but this is not a little thing. It's a huge thing. It will make all the difference.
Reflection:
I admit I am powerless over certain parts of my life and I need God's help.
