Celebrate Recovery

  I discovered Celebrate Recovery in January of this year.  It has been the best thing I've ever done for me.  It's a recovery program based on God's ability and desire to heal our hurts, habits and hangups.  I've built more relationships in the last 5 months than I have in the first 39 years of my life.  I've discovered that we are not meant to live this life alone.  I hug people when I cringed at people's touch.  I speak to absolute strangers instead of hiding in a corner trying to be invisible.  Fear, worry, anxiety and depression are receding as God's love and purpose fill my life.  I've tried therapy and medication to "fix me" but only God's love heals.
