Grace asks, can God love us in our broken places, in our struggles, in our weaknesses, in our not enough. We think, God can be merciful to you; would he be merciful to me, too. We need our Savior every day. Thanks Jessamyn for your words.
Yes, excellent. With you 100%. The AA program is continually wise: they require a sponsor, aka, an accountability partner., to truly overcome the addictive tendencies. When it is a question of ongoing personal sanctification (as opposed to a serious addiction) Confession is usually the greatest accountability partner. But we have always to be wise as serpents and innocent as doves with regard to these things. Thanks for your insights.
Agreed--having spiritual companionship can make all the difference. Like you say, wisdom is required!!! I certainly don't trust as easily as I once did!
