Your wildest misperceptions, your weird imaginings, your blackest nightmares all mean nothing. They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The Holy Spirit will restore your sanity because insanity is NOT the Will of God.

A power greater than yourself is already at work in your life. As your addiction is being lifted, you will naturally see that because miracles are natural.
