Recently I spend an evening speaking with a woman who told me she suffered from Bipolar disorder. The more I spoke with her, the more I felt I understood even though she implied I could not.
Although I don’t feel recovery is a panacea of healing for everyone. I do believe that support groups can help anyone. It’s the “two or more gathered in the name of truth” confessing and sharing our testimonies with each other for hope and support that really does it. That plan was laid out thousands of years ago by Christ himself.
Support meetings are much like a one hour prayer but, how many folks are willing to spend that much time each day. Like addiction, or any other three letter diagnosis disorder, we suffer from it every day. So how wiling are we to receive help? It’s like they say, “it’s only available for those who want it,” for it requires willingness, dedication and fortitude to learn. You may suppose the problem is that there are not enough support groups for your diagnosis to go around? Not the case. It’s simply the willingness to start your own. If you build it, they will come and you will all be better for it.
That evening my new friend went on to explained that she did not believe there was a spiritual component to her disorder. I listened to her go on and on but I must disagree. We are spirit first and human second. All is spiritual. In actuality, we are just materialized, invisible atoms vibrating and swirling around held together by the power of almighty God. Eventually, when our bodies “wear out” our spirts will leave this dimension and move on.
Up until the age of thirty-three I was reluctant and later, because of addiction, really unable to understand any REAL knowledge of God’s spirit. Now by God’s Grace with thirty-eight years of clear headed, consistent recovery and fifteen thousand classroom hours listening to the truth from hundreds of thousands of different people in the rooms, by revelation my belief is real.
The proof…
It has actually, divinely occurred, in my life and further will occur in yours, accompanied with real divine life purpose, IF you allow it. Take it from me, we serve a God of unconditional Love.
Hallelujah!
