Addiction Rewritten: Addiction Takes, God Provides

DAY 18 OF 30

When addiction diminishes control, God offers surrender.

Have you ever driven in winter and lost control on the ice? One moment, you have complete control of the vehicle, and the next, it has a mind of its own. Addiction has a way of making you feel like you’re no longer in the driver’s seat. You try to manage it, fight it, and get ahead of it, but it keeps slipping through your hands. The more you struggle for control, the more it seems to disappear.

Just like in the song “Jesus Take the Wheel” by Carrie Underwood, surrendering is always an option. When everything feels like it’s spinning out, you don’t have to hold it all together. You can hand it over to God, who won’t let you crash.

Prayer

God, I’m tired of trying to control what I can’t. Help me surrender my pain, worry, and fear to You so that I can live more freely. Amen.

Scripture

About this Plan

Addiction Rewritten: Addiction Takes, God Provides

Addiction can take more than we realize — our peace, our identity, our relationships, and even our hope. But God is a provider, not a thief. In this 30-day devotional journey, you’ll uncover how God can meet you in the mess, rewrite your story, and restore what addiction tried to steal. With God, nothing is wasted. Addiction makes false promises, but God always delivers on His. Through Him, you have a powerful testimony worth sharing.
