Rob are we not playing a semantics game?

I have no power over you or anyone else. I can not change you or anyone else.

I do have the power in regards to my reaction to you and others.

Even then I still have the power to choose how to react to you and others.

I can choose to react to you or others strictly with my will or I can choose to react to you and others in the manner that is in line with my HP's will.

I have no power over alcohol once I put it into my body.

With the gift that my HP has given me I have no desire to put a drink in my body as long as I choose to do his will and not mine.

Maintaining my spirituality fit is my choice, it is not a gift, it is something I choose to work on every day to do His will and not mine. By me making the choice to maintain my spirituality and doing His will and not mine, my HP blesses me with many things, one of them is to not even desire a drink or even view a drink as a solution to anything.
