Thank you for reminding me that God will do for me what I can't do for myself.

For 11 years I tried to turn as much responsibilty over to the woman I'd married and mother of our children. Bills, kid duties and activities, etc. I just stayed focused on yardwork, home maintenance, and drinking. When she divorced me and I went into recovery I was scared to death to face life on life's terms and try to function again as a bachelor.

Every hurdle I feared became a small challenge, with God's grace and my recovery I overcame everything one day at a time. I guess I learned to function in God's will, life is very good as long as I'm a follower.
