Road to a Fresh Start
Letting It Go
Step 1 - Realize I'm not God. I admit I'm powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable.
Step 2 - Believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover.
Step 3 - Consciously Choose to commit all my life and will to Christ's Care and Control.
God blesses those who are humble, for they will inherit the whole earth.
Matthew 5:5
