Freedom From Fear

[roverl0616]

One of the first things we'll get rid of by joining recovery is fear. It's something that's been troublesome for us all. It would seem like it would require a big solution, one equal to how big of a problem it has been for us. The solution is actually quite simple, and very effective and powerful to experience. Through recovery we're given a new understanding of what believing is about. Then we find that if we can use faith to help us to believe there is an unseen goodness to everything, we then start to believe in the possibility of that goodness for ourselves. After a while we end up having a belief that is unshakable by any of our fears. Lot's of us start believing this way that the good lord doesn't bring us this far to recover, and then to dump us. If we can begin to believe in this, then we'll be on our way to losing all of those fears that none of us could ever get rid of.
