Recognizing Codependency
Devotional codependency often sneaks into our lives unnoticed. It manifests as unhealthy emotional control and misplaced trust in others, leading to a lack of personal and spiritual growth. We may find ourselves overly involved in others' problems, struggling to set boundaries, and becoming emotionally dependent. Recognizing these signs is the first step towards breaking free. By acknowledging our codependency, we can shift our trust back to God, our ultimate source of strength and wisdom.
Bible Verse'The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.' - Proverbs 29:25
