Digging In:
Think about the people you surround yourself with. What forms of power are valued and sought after by your community? How does a desire for power shape your own life?
Ask God to help you really see your life this week. What do you need to surrender? Ask God to help you begin letting go of power and control – to set you free.
Start to pay non-judgmental attention to your addictions, ask God to help you see them for what they really are. What things do you do out of compulsion and fear?
