Day 28

It's day 28 and I feel great! It was very difficult not to succumb last Saturday. I actually threw on my jeans, shoes and a jacket to go to the gas station and get beer. Before heading out the door I prayed to God to give me the strength to keep from drinking and to somehow help me to make it through the next hour. He answered my prayer, though it felt like I was hovering over a cliff for the remainder of the evening. I made pizza and watched stand-up until I fell asleep. So, I did not drink and continue to fight my battle. God certainly carried me last Saturday, and I am very deeply grateful. He also led me to SoberRecovery, where posting and reading have been instrumental to my sobriety. Thank you.
