I know from experience that dealing with the addicted is draining on the best of days.

As I counsel the patients recovering from addiction there are times when I want to offer them healing words and meaningful responses but there are no words to be found in my head, in my mouth or even plastered on the walls. So I cheat. I sort of listen for, look for, search for help from the holy spirit in the room. (Mind you, I can't describe what happens because it's so much more a thing that happens than it is a thing I do). But then I say something more and keep talking. The words that I hear coming from my lips are at once, surprising to me and healing to the patient.<br />It doesn't always happen. It's nothing I control our can predict. But I can appreciate! And I do. <br />I think that's similar. It's a blast isn't it?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00007671632891443489noreply@blogger.com
