OUT!!!

I've taken the first step to recovery by admitting that I know who and what I am. I'm a card toting member of the club. I've chosen to quit fooling myself like so many others and make it official. I AM A POSSESSION SLAVE! There it's out! I know all my fears revolve around one central theme... I'm afraid of losing what I've got. I'm sure that on some level this makes me a coward which is not what I want to be, so I'm trying this blogging thing to see if it can help me focus on who I really want to be. I'm not "at war" with possessions I just don't want them to be my focus any more. That is such a selfish mentality. I want to get off myself and start following my Lord by simply "spreadin' the love". That's what He did and it was much more effective than any modern outreach strategy that I've experienced. I'm sure I'll post other thoughts, rants, and feelings but the personal growth is what I am seeking.
