I went back to the Monday night group tonight and it affirmed that I should continue going to Celebrate Recovery.

We heard a testimony from a woman who told a story of hiking between two mountains in Israel. She was taking this path through the desert because she was told there was an oasis in the end. She likened it to CR; even though there may not be any signs of life, and everything still looks like desert, if you stick with it there’s a miracle in the end.

I also had a conversation with Dan, because it turns out that he heard about my blog post. The internet got real small for me that day.

It was really nice to talk to him.

I’m writing the following down so I’ll remember it.
He can tell I’m not a quitter by how many barriers that I have up. In a year, we’re supposed to talk again and see if I’ve figured out why those two concepts are related.
It sounded like an elaborate ploy to me. I mean, if you tell me to attend for a year so I can harass him about that question, then he’s just counting on my stubbornness. He insisted it wasn’t a ploy, though.

I guess I’ll find out this year.
