Thoughts from a Sunday morning

5 days sober:

This morning I had some wonderful thoughts about obedience. I wrote them down so that I could remember them.
"Keeping a commandment acts as a gateway to keeping the next commandment. The opposite is true as well. Breaking a rule or commandment leads to breaking other commandments. What we choose empowers us to continue along the path we just chose."
 A very interesting idea that what we do empowers us to continue along that path. If I choose to think about a girl in a lustful way then that will open the path to eventually acting out in my addiction. Also, if I start my day right, thinking about recovery or about God then I will be given strength to resist the temptations that might come at me throughout the day. I am grateful that God has given me that ability.

This is my daily check in and my experience from today. I pray for another 24 hours! One day at a time!

-Grateful and Hopeful
