CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This weekend I got some news that disturbed me and I found myself feeling overwhelmed with negative feelings. I was shocked at some of the thoughts that raced through my mind (desire for retribution, longing to escape and numb the pain, etc.) so I did what I’ve been trained to do and called someone. I talked with a mentor and shared how I was feeling and he gave me some instructions that I wanted to share with you all.
10th Step Inventory:
-
Write down all who I’m angry with or resentful towards
-
Write a short description of what they did to me
-
Reflect on and write about my part in it. I may have instigated in some way, set too-high expectations, desired to be in control, etc.)
-
Do I need to make amends for anything?
-
What fears are at play? What am I afraid of losing? What am I afraid won’t happen if I don’t play God?
3rd Step Prayer:
-
“Make a decision to turn my will and life over to the care of God”
-
Spend time putting this into God’s hands, letting go of resentment, confessing your sin, asking for help to forgive.
MOLESKIN:
This was my first time selecting a soundtrack. It was fun but I’ll bring a speaker next time!
