Here are my notes for this week’s addiction class. The topic is on a change of heart. Any inaccuracies in my notes are the fault of the note taker.
- All of us are affected by addiction either our own or someone we know
- Christ in one to help us may ask: where you let me take this?
- When you manage the demons within it doesn’t matter what demons you face without. They no longer matter.
- The Book Mormon refers to the anti-Lehi Nephi people who had an addiction to being bloodthirsty. To completely abandon their addiction they made a vow never to pursue war again. That promise to not include their children who became the 2000 sticks and soldiers.
- Be willing to let the Savior convert your heart. This can be done by becoming fully involved with the gospel and its meetings.
- The act of study and understanding of the gospel from the Scriptures and leaders of the church
- Learn humility so that you rely upon the Lord and not your own devices.
- Participate in the Fellowship the church where you associate with people that are working on improving themselves you are.
- Believe in redemption you can do your part and Christ will do the rest.
- You need to have patience realizing that overcoming addiction may take time and effort.
- Depend on call upon the Savior for help. He is eager to help.
