Recently at Celebrate Recovery we were discussing Step 5 of the 12 steps: We admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
Celebrate Recovery often uses acrostics in their lessons, and the N in “Confess” stands for no more guilt. As the leader continued with the lesson, these words stuck out to me:
“We no longer have to follow the rearview mirror way of living.”
It made me think of a song I wrote 5 years ago called “So Long Insecurity.” I wrote it around the same time as Beth Moore’s book So Long Insecurity was released.
One of the lines in the song says, “The rearview mirror shows my old self reaching out to me, but tonight I say goodbye, so long insecurity.”
My amazingly talented friend, Teri, performed the song at a women’s conference and I’d love to share it with you. I hope it’s an encouraging reminder that your past isn’t who you are today.
Look in the mirror and kick insecurity to the curb, my friend.
