Morning! Blessings of the day. Thanks for support and prayers.Yesterday,work/hospitals/doctor's/police/family/meetings/airplanes&airports and way after 1:00 A.M. in the morning,finally rest, we moved thru the day.Plane from Florida in after midnite at airport for my mother in law couple hours late closed out our day.My sister in law still sedated after 2 days ,with stomach pumped and on ventillator and under "watch".Today starts more involvement with CPS,police and shrinks etc.Thru all we feel so blessed that we were able to remember that EVERYTHING WE OWN AND DO BELONGS TO GOD AND EVERYTHING GOD OWNS BELONGS TO US!!As we kissed goodnight,were happy we were able to "do this" together,and gave our God the glory for another day(regardless of what life was bringing)we are renewed(could probably use some more sleep :):)and ready to do all we can ,to the best of our abilities,God powered and seeking His will for this day.....Today I am sure "more will be revealed" Thanks for allowing me to share in my own recovery and carry our message of hope in all things,even when it is dark.Practicing spiritual principles is not just looking at a board numbered #1 through #12, and randomly quoting what we see,it is allowing God to instill the principles in our lives and "work" them to the best of our ability! In the midst of the "action" I was able to make my homegroup and hear a wonderful message of hope...Keeping it on me,Just For Today,I start and out God centered and will spend this day continuing to remain in a state of confidence knowing that everything I have belongs to God and the plan is already in place,got to just pay attention to the suggestions.Only in recovery,can I surrender all! I'll Let you know what goes on in next few days...peace......

Thanks for sharing and prayers are with you. I love how you are keeping(relying on) God in midst of everything. "Just to the extent that we do as we think He would have us, and humbly rely on Him, does He enable us to match calamity with serenity" (Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous p.68). Keep Coming Back!
