This story offers a glimpse into Jill’s unexpected descent into alcoholism that begins with something as ordinary as sleep medication, and how, after relapse and deep struggle, a powerful encounter with the Holy Spirit and the Catholic faith leads her to lasting sobriety and renewed purpose.
REFLECT
- Jill’s addiction began in an unexpected and seemingly harmless way, gradually growing into dependence. Where in your life might something small or “harmless” be leading you toward unhealthy patterns?
- Jill's story reflects how easy it was to justify and minimize her behavior over time. How do you tend to rationalize behaviors that you know are not leading you toward freedom?
- Recovery began when Jill recognized the truth of her situation and could no longer deny it. What truth about your life might God be inviting you to fully acknowledge today?
