( Theta ) Relief (Psalm 51:17 & Luke 18:13 14)

“All I want is honesty, simple human honesty.” This quote is attributed to the Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard. It is at the heart of all recovery from any addiction that controls us. How do we get real? And how do we stay real? When people bottom out from whatever their dependency (addictive habit) might be, they cry out to God, “have mercy on me, a sinner.” To learn more about the honesty in Step 1 in Alcoholics Anonymous, download today’s Pdf. Admitting that you are powerless over your addiction is your first sign of hope. There are lots of angels God will send to you who will help you stay honest with yourself, with God and with others. You will have mercy!
