HARD to FALL

Had been doing really well.  Fell exceptionally hard on Saturday.  It was quite a fall to recover from.  Not sure why I did it.  Never want to do it again.  Life is much better without the substances I have relied on for so long.  Wonder how long it will be until I no longer stumble or fall.  God is on my side and I feel his presence even stronger everyday. 

I want to experience the world through these new eyes for a while and see what I have been missing out on.  I also want to see what is in store for me.  Things are changing so quickly in my world.  It seems like a slow progression and then boom!  Everything is different.  Some changes I am REALLY struggling with, others are coming a little easier. 

Dear Lord, please continue to watch over me with your gentle kindness and love.  I thank you for the positive influences you have placed in my life.  Help me to not overuse or abuse the goodness there.  I have a tendency to wear people out and I only want to embrace the help, the goodness, the friendship of those around me.  I'm afraid of going it alone.  I know darkness and ironically have had a fear of the dark since early childhood.  It is interesting the new fears that pop up everyday, I accept that these may be obstacles/challenges that will help me learn and grow in my faith in you. Thank you for sending me angels that I recognize and accept direction from, please bless them in return.
