One Direction

By Christina

imageI think many times in life in one form or another we have gone out of our way to get out of God’s way. Meaning we would be so up to our noses with addictions, struggles problems and sin that we could never find our own way back.

But its end is the way of death.
Proverbs 14:12

A Must Read: RECOVERY IS POSSIBLE

By Christina

imageI used to think that recovery wasn’t possible. When I messed up or had been through the worst of the worst, I always thought that it was OVER for me. We call that “rock bottom.”

I had no control over my situation, so I thought! But that was and is never the case with God! He wants you to hit rock bottom  so that you can meet the Rock [Jesus] at that bottom!!! It’s never too late for you to bounce back. Continue reading
