Message of Hope!
Permalink  
 


Because of my Higher Powers grace and mercy and through diligent work in the "solution",I never have to miss getting the presents for the kids cause I was too drunk to remember,to miss the dinner because I passed out before it was served,to watch the joy in the eyes of the kids because I wasn't available and to miss the whole day becauseI was on a very long run caught in the grip of a devastating illness,one that only a spiritual experience would conquer!Not only for the season but for each day,we carry the message of hope to those who still suffer and we portray this message in 'how we live 'Dear God,I am so grateful to be your servant and I will continue to strive to be all you intended me to be through your grace and my willingness to remain commited.I am physically having my strength returned to me after being knocked down, I will definitely reflect on the fragility of life and work toward changing the things I can and pray for the wisdom to Know the difference!Have a blessed and productive day!smile

Beautiful, thanks Mike.

A great reminder for those days when I start to think that there's got to be more to life than this program and meetings. I have life now b/c of this program and meetings. No more calls back home from the pub "I'm just having one for the road", calls that took place every hour and eventually I didn't even bother to make.

Thanks Mike. God has been good to me. I never forget for a moment His grace upon my life. The longer I live the more grateful I am, because I used to be a very childish believer and never recognised the wonderful things that God had given me.
