No More Desire ™ Porn Addiction Recovery 26: Can I Actually Learn Humility? | Porn Recovery Mindset
Have you ever been told that addiction recovery requires humility?
Do you wonder how in the world being humble could possibly help you quit porn?
Perhaps hearing that gets your defenses up. Perhaps it fills you with anger. Or maybe you just don’t understand what it means to “be humble”. You try to humble yourself in order to overcome porn addiction, but you wonder what that really means??
Humility can be an ethereal and seemingly unattainable virtue. Afterall, if I think that I’m humble, I’m probably not…so, how do I become humble?...
Well…I’m still working on that myself, so I really couldn’t tell ya. That said, I do think that we can talk about some perspective shifts and actions steps we can take each day that can help us learn humility, which will empower our porn addiction recovery.
Why? Practicing having an attitude of humility in everything that we do will invite more of God’s light in. Without humility, God cannot get through to us. Our heart must be OPEN. This attitude enables us to learn, grow, and be open to help. If we aren’t humble, we simply won’t learn, and therefore we won’t be able to stop porn addiction. So, we aim to practice it in ALL that we do.
I'll give you perspective shifts that can help us learn humility and break free from porn addiction.
I'll give you action steps that can build a humble attitude so you can get rid of porn addiction.
If we want to quit porn, it requires us to humble ourselves before God and Jesus Christ. This doesn’t mean that God is up there demanding our submission or wanting us to feel ashamed of ourselves. Rather, God knows that the only way for us to overcome unwanted behaviors is to live according to the ways of truth and peace.
