Because it's true!! I wasn't there so I don't know how the message was delivered but the fact that he took the time to deliver the message is good. I felt great physically almost immediately and I acted as if I'd found a new toy at Christmas and wanted to show everyone. Not saying that everyone acts this way but there's a tendency to get cocky and start thinking things might not have been as bad as I thought so why not have some fun. That's the danger. I was told to "stand guard at the portal of thought" and to be "constantly vigilant." To me that meant to go ahead and enjoy the gifts of not drinking but don't get complacent. Remember, God talks to us in strange ways and sometimes He's not all that gentle with the delivery.
