As long as you must be in full control, God cannot be the Lord of your life.
Control is a common characteristic of Codependency. Someone in recovery for codependency may have this fruit in their lives:
- Accept Jesus Christ as Higher Power.
- Working the 12 step recovery process diligently and consistently.
- Accepting and walking in the biblical truth that our identity and value are who we are in Christ, and not based on how others view us, what we do, or the service we perform.
- Learning to recognize and enforce healthy boundaries that accurately establish where we end and another person begins. Not allowing others to compromise those boundaries.
- Learning how to help others in suitable ways, without rescuing or fixing; allowing them to act independently, allowing them to own the results of their choices and behavior.
- Performing acts of service as a choice, not out of duty or for recognition and value from others. Serving with joy using God-given talents and abilities.
- Learning to live a balanced life where self-care and taking responsibility for our own health and well-being take priority over the addictive behavior and control of others.
