Recovery is faith healing in the truest sense. Recovery is about opening yourself to God so that God can do whatever He needs to do with you so that you can best live your life. Nevertheless, we must be clear about one thing. The reason we can treat addiction with straight spirituality, whereas we cannot use the same treatment for, say, a broken leg, is due to the very nature of the disease in the first place. As explained in the preceding chapters, addiction itself is an essentially spiritual malady and thus treatable by the application of overtly spiritual practices.
