It's been a week from Hell.  But I didn't have to drink.

Thank God for meetings and this site. May you all have a wonderful Blessed Sunday. I pray mine will be better than last Sunday. As i say this week has been a real test, but it's over. ONE DAY AT A TIME

Lead Me and Guide Me

Almighty God, I humbly pray,
Lead me and guide me through this day.
Cast out my selfishness and sin,
Open my heart to let You in.
Help me now as I blindly stray
Over the pitfalls along the way.
Let me have courage to face each task,
Invest me with patience and love, I ask.
Care for me through each hour today,
Strengthen and guard me now, I pray.

As I forgive, forgive me too,
Needing Your mercy as I do.
Oh, give me Your loving care,
Never abandon me to despair.
Yesterday's wrongs I would seek to right.
Make me more prefect in Your sight.
Oh, teach me to live as best I can,
Use me to help my fellowman.
Save me from acts of bitter shame,
I humbly ask it in Your name.

Hang in there Rick! Here's another one from our friend Abe: This Too Shall Pass Away It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: 'And this, too, shall pass away.' How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!

Yep 

This too shall pass

It always does

Nothing happens in god's world by mistake

I try to remember that line, and accept it.

Take care all
