Celebrate Recovery – Lesson 3: HOPE

Celebrate Recovery Lesson 3 focuses on Principle 2: earnestly believing that God exists, that we matter to Him, and that He has the power to help us recover. After admitting our powerlessness in Principle 1, we now turn toward hope. Biblical hope is not wishful thinking. It is confident expectation rooted in who God is. Jesus says, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” When we stop denying our hurts, hang-ups, and habits and bring them into the light, we position ourselves to receive God’s comfort. Step 2 reminds us that we “came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.” That Higher Power has a name: Jesus Christ. Hope means trusting Him, staying open to change, receiving His power, and expecting Him to complete the work He begins. Recovery starts with faith, even faith as small as a mustard seed. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. – Matthew 5:4 (NIV) Learn more at CRofClemmons.org.
