Life Got Better
Lord, it was hard to believe I could actually give up alcohol and drugs and the problems that came with them after all those years of addiction. It was like my life was uprooted and replanted into good soil. I thought I was going to die a drug addict and alcoholic, but you had different plans for my life.
Lord, I believe that help from my mom, counselors, Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and even my training in basketball had some effect on my life and recovery. In basketball, I learned to battle against the odds, and to dig in and not give in. But ultimately, it was you, Lord, who set me free. I thank you for doing that good work in me, and that I was willing to accept the help I badly needed.
Lord, when I played basketball, I played my best to win. I believe I transferred some of that attitude to my recovery and my relationship with you. Lord, you and I worked things out for good. It was two more years before I could give up cigarettes, but with your help, I did that, too. All my problems did not go away just because I stopped drinking and using drugs, but I was now able to deal with my difficulties with a clear mind for the first time.
Matthew 26:41 Jesus said, “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
I am simply trying to struggle through life, trying to do God’s bidding. ~ George Lucas, filmmaker, and entrepreneur, known for creating the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises.
