Can God Help You Quit Your Addiction?

In my book I did mention God several times.  I didn't want my book "I Quit!" to be religious, but I wanted it to rather be a spiritual book in a way.  I know from my own personal experience that if I didn't give up my addiction by letting each one go, I wouldn't have been as successful as I am.

Oh, I may have been able to quit each addiction, but it wouldn't have been as easy as it is now.  I'm not saying I'm special at all, it's just that I took the path of believing God would help me---and He did.

I think I'm going to take a turn with my work and my writing, bringing God more into it, since that's really what helped me to quit my 3 addictions.  It's the truth, period.

And it's beautiful to me too....that I didn't do it all on my own......

It's Easter

I'm going out to breakfast with my family so I didn't have time to wait for the gym to open today.  But I wanted to get in a mile walk in so that I still could exercise today.

As I was walking I was thinking about Easter and what it means.  For Christians it's a sacred day, signifying the day Jesus rose from the dead.  What is the analogy here regarding addictions?

I think it's that we always have another chance to win.  If you fail day after day trying to quit your addiction, you always have tomorrow, and tomorrow could be the day that you quit and your life will forever be changed.

Just my thought on my walk this morning........

Happy Easter...
