Good Morning ATO family! ā˜€ļøšŸ™Œ

Some of us have come to the place where we feel like we just can’t change…
Countless attempts, nothing to show for it. I’ve been there—hopeless and broken.

But everything changed when I surrendered.

When I became willing to let go and let God, I started to see progress. I started to believe I actually had a chance. šŸ’Æ

If we are willing to place our lives in God’s hands, there is always hope for change and a brighter future.

šŸ“– ā€œGod will make this happen, for He who calls you is faithful.ā€
—1 Thessalonians 5:24

šŸ“– ā€œHe gave His life to free us from every kind of sin… to cleanse us and make us His own.ā€
—Titus 2:14

God has already made a way. Our part is surrender.

Let go of what you can’t change.
Stop trying to control everything.
Take your hands off the wheel and let Jesus lead.

That’s where peace is found.
That’s where purpose begins.
That’s where real transformation happens. āœļø

As always… Hope to the Hopeless! šŸ’™

Safe in God’s Hands

Do not fear, for I am with you . . . I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

Isaiah 41:8-14

Today's Devotion
I shut my eyes as the amusement park ride creeped higher—trying to ignore all the creaking coming from this wildly popular ride I was on. When it stopped for a moment, I made the mistake of peeking and was horrified to see the plunge we were about to take. I closed my eyes again and screamed the whole way down. That childhood memory still makes me shudder.

Sometimes in life it can feel like we’re falling further and further with no one to catch us. But when life seems chaotic and out of control, we can find comfort in knowing that God is with us. As believers, we know that God dwells in us through the Holy Spirit. We can speak to Him and be guided by Scripture.

God wanted to assure the Israelites that He would ā€œcatchā€ them even in the midst of their ā€œfallā€ of rebellion. He said through the prophet Isaiah, ā€œDo not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right handā€ (Isaiah 41:10). God wanted them to know He would help them through their trials (v. 13). How encouraging it must’ve been for the Israelites to know that God hadn’t abandoned them even while they were living as prisoners in a foreign land.

When our life feels like it’s out of control, we can take courage knowing that God is there to help us. We’re safe in His loving and mighty hands.

Reflect & Pray
What challenge are you facing today? How does it feel knowing God is with you?

Dear God, thank You that I’m safe in Your hands.

Good Morning ATO family! ā˜€ļø

It took me many times to finally learn from my mistakes. I’ve always heard people say, ā€œWise men learn from other people’s mistakes.ā€ Unfortunately, I wasn’t that wise—I had to learn the hard way. But hear me… you don’t have to.

I tried over and over to control my drinking and using, and every time I ended up face down on the pavement. But falling on our face isn’t the same as hitting our knees.

Everything started to change when I admitted my powerlessness and came to believe that God could restore me. That’s when hope showed up. And I held onto that hope for dear life.

Jesus met me right there—when I finally hit my knees in complete surrender.

I remember what it felt like to be lost, confused, homeless… and completely hopeless. People said I would never change, never stay out of prison. But today, change is real and alive in my life—and my actions reflect it.

God has blessed me with recovery, a family, a purpose, and a mission—to serve the lost, broken, abandoned, and rejected.

The pain and misery can stop here.
My mistakes can become your lessons.

Be wise today. Learn from them.

Wishing you all a blessed day!
You already know what it is…
