Celebrate Recovery Devotional

DAY 3 OF 14

Celebrate Your Recovery

Have you ever wondered why Celebrate Recovery is called Celebrate Recovery? Well . . . people usually seek help when things are bad. Which means none of us has much to celebrate when we first enter the program. That isn’t always the case, of course, but usually people begin coming to Celebrate Recovery when things are far from ideal.

But soon, God begins to change things. He takes our pain and gives us purpose. He takes our crying and turns it into praise. He gives us joy and peace and freedom from our hurts, hang-ups, and habits. He gives us reason to celebrate.

Of course, it doesn’t happen all at once. There will still be days when we hurt, feel stuck, or don’t believe there is much to celebrate. There are sure to be hard times in recovery—pain we have to face, amends we have to make, forgiveness we must offer. But for those who hold on, there is hope and healing. There is reason to celebrate!

The important thing to remember is that we must hold fast to our commitment. We must refuse to quit. Each day we actively work toward our recovery, we will be able to thank God and share our testimony with someone who needs to hear it. Each day, we come one step closer to complete healing for our lives.

Prayer

Father, I feel stuck right now. Please give me the resolve to continue to seek recovery. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
