Theres so many things I wouldn’t have learned about myself still tied to the bottle.
For example: I love the outdoors. Like REALLY love it. If I could build a house, I would create a space where half of the room would be outside!!
And sure most would say: You needed to stop drinking to see and know that?
and the answer would be a humble Yes but its not just about the small parts of myself, never fully actualized
It was the constant undoing of myself every time I chose to drink.
I never even took the time to explore real interest. I never sat down long enough for God to reveal to me his original design for my life and personhood.
Who I use to be was one of my own making and as much as she was beautiful, and a joy to be around she was limited.
Stunted
A rose,
that never grew
above concrete
I dont know who this woman will be 10 years from now or even 2 but I am growing to love her. When I first came to God it was like I had to get acclimated to this new body. It was like walking around with stilts on. Wobbly and uncomfortable
I was completely disoriented.
I Hated it lol
I wanted to go back to who I use to be, I wanted God to revive the old me failing to realize that woman was never who I was meant to be in the first place,
just who I came to be.
Yeah man. I love the outdoors. I love listening to the birds sing. I love it so much that I ever built a house, I would create a space where one half of the room would be inside and the other half outside.
Ill play jazz music
mainly gospel
Read my Bible
Talk to God
and most importantly,
Thank Him for all that he’s done and created
The sun, moon, stars,
Grass and leaves,
The flowers,
The trees and the shade that it brings
But we musnt forget his most important creation
I would truly thank him for You,
You
and
Me.

“Worthy are you, our Lord and God,
to receive glory and honor and power,
for you created all things,
and by your will they existed and were created” – Revelation 4:11
God is Freedom
Amen
and
Amen
