What’s your Red Flag?

Too much!  This is the malady of our age.  We over-schedule, over-expect, over-demand and find oursevles running at the edge of our emotional capacity. Lots of us are edgy, weary in spirit and frankly, spiritually empty.  You know exactly what I mean, don’t you?

What’s your RED FLAG?  There are four red flags in Alcoholics Annonymous that apply to any addiction–H.A.L.T.  Are you  hungy? Are you angry? Are you lonely?Are you tired?

 These are triggers that if not addressed kick addicts back to an addicitive lifestyle.  I have found them very useful in my own life.  Why?  All sin and habits are addictive. I may not struggle with alcohol, but there are those things that I am attached to; that are nailed down in my life in self-limiting, hurtful, and unhealthy ways.

What’s the one thing you will do that nurtures your spirit and refreshes your soul? This means you have to decide what to say “YES” and “NO” to. Blaming others won’t cut it. This means that you will have to consider the necessary resources and relationships to stay refreshed.

I am praying for you!
