Life Recovery

God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27

To be created in God's image is to be made to desire the things God desires, to love the way he loves. When we were in bondage to our addiction, we experienced the demeaning of that image. We became less like our Creator and more like our abusive slave master. Our recovery is, in part, a restoration of the image of God in us as we turn from looking into the face of addiction and, instead, look into the Father's eyes. That gaze alone brings us closer to healing. Closer to once again bearing the image of God, From the Life Recovery Prayer Devotional.
