Recovery Thought of the Day - March 28

Good Morning CR Family!  Please see below for the Recovery Thought of the Day from Perry C. If you missed CR Friday Night Live last night, you can find it at the youtube channel link in the announcements section.

Who Am I Anyway?

Have you ever had the experience of thinking one way and then an event changed everything? For me it was the first time I peered into a friend’s telescope.  I was faced with a different reality.  The universe was so much larger and complex than I had ever imagined. This event changed me.

I wonder if this was what it was like for Peter, James & John when in Mark 9:2-13 they saw Jesus transform right in front of them.  One moment Jesus was just like them and the next Jesus was shining with a brilliant light bathed in the power and love of God. And they heard God say, “This is my beloved son, listen to him”, verse 7. The disciples experienced a different reality and the event changed everything.

When we work through recovery steps 1-12, we too are transformed.  The old self that keeps us chained to the past is dealt with and we discover new ways of being and live into our true identity.  We are so much more than our hurts, hang-ups and habits that humble and challenge us. We actually are chosen, rescued, accepted, secure, loved, gifted, powerful and significant to God, the creator of the universe.

Reach out to a friend, sponsor or accountability partner today and talk about who you believe you are.
If you would like someone to reach out to you, text us your E-mail and name to 970-645-6109 and we will have someone from within CR reach out to you.

Note: The thought of the days along with other key updates will also be posted on our facebook page (Celebrate Recovery at Crossorads Church Loveland).

2. On Friday's we will be hosting on-line open share group meetings at 7:30pm.  There will be one mixed issues group for men and one mixed issues group for women.  These meetings will take place using the Zoom App.  In order to participate you will need a tablet, smart-phone or computer with camera.  In order to ensure confidentiality of these meetings everyone who participates will need to find a private room to set up, have their camera on, so others can see that there is no one else in the room and they will also need to wear a pair of headphones so that they are the only ones that can hear.  This is a free app and you can download it on google play, apple app store or through your web-browser on your computer.  Stay tuned for this up-coming weeks sign-up links for the meetings.
