Today’s Scripture: Luke 18:13, BLB, “But the tax collector, standing afar off, was not even willing to lift up the eyes to heaven, but was striking his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, the sinner!'” We try every trick in the book to overcome our sins, don’t we?

I am looking to the Father through the eyes of Jesus.
Today’s Scripture: John 9:39, NIV- “Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.” It is Jesus who opens our blind eyes and blinds what we think we can see.

I have been exposed.
Today’s Scripture: Ephesians 5:13, BSB- “But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that is illuminated becomes a light itself.” The thought of being exposed is nerve wracking.

The LORD is restoring me in my incurable afflictions.
Today’s Scripture: Jeremiah 30:17, NIV- “But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,’ declares the LORD, ‘because you are called an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares.’ I LOVE how God’s Word speaks to us.

We are all members of one another.
Today’s Scripture: Ephesians 4:25, NKJV- “Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another.” In Step One and Lesson One, Celebrate Recovery references Ephesians 4:25 to remind us that we are members of the same body.
