When men and women pour so much alcohol into themselves that they destroy their lives, they commit a most unatrual act. Defying their instinctive desire for self-preservation, they seem bent upon self-destruction. They work against their own deepest instinct.
As they are progressively humbled by the terrific beating administered by alcohol, the grace of GOD can enter them and expel their obsession. Here their powerful instinct to live can cooperate fully with their Creator's desire to give them new life.
The central characteristic ot the spiritual experience is that it gives the recipient a new and better motivation out of all proportion to any process of discipl;ine, belief, or faith.
These experiences cannot make us whole at once; they are a rebirth to a fresh and cetain opportunity.
