Friends in AA
Permalink  
 


November 9

It is a most comfortable feeling for us alcoholics to know there is a vast host of friends in AA standing by.  We pray to God we will never need them for an emergency and, with our new-found faith, we don't think we ever will, but it helps a lot to know that they are available if needed.  It gives you a feeling of security akin to catching the fourth ace.

I don't "save" my AA friends for emergencies only, I rely on them daily to help me stay sober and do the right things. I can also say that they rely on me, and neither of us has been let down yet.
But that's just me....

They carried me when I couldn't carry myself, and I have been privilaged enough to do the same for many of them, and I talk to a sober alcoholic at least once a day, every day

As do I.  It's a necessary thing for me, but so very worth it.
