Today has been hard mentally. I've been able to surrender and throw off everything that has come my way so far, but I have realized how much harder a day is when you are tired. Also, it seems like a week into sobriety is one of the hardest points up...according to my experience! But, this is my check-in to the world...just to check-in and let whoever reads this know that I am still fighting! I am doing my best to work on Step One...I pray every day to have the humility to truly see myself where I am...and to feel God's love for me.
A quote that I heard today that helped me a bit today: "It is more important to not shrink than to survive." -Elder Maxwell of the LDS Church. - This helped me realize that each day I need to surrender my whole will over my God. Allowing my will to be swallowed up in His will will help me to become the best person that I can be each day. I hope I can not shrink from the will of my God.
For all those out there suffering...keep fighting your way to God! There is peace and joy on the horizon, as far away as it may seem. Stay strong!
-Grateful and Hopeful
