Arrow Big Book Quote 7/25/13

"But my friend sat before me, and he made the pointblank declaration that God had done for him what he could not do for himself. His human will had failed. Doctors had pronounced him incurable. Society was about to lock him up. Like myself, he had admitted complete defeat. Then he had, in effect, been raised from the dead, suddenly taken from the scrap heap to a level of life better than the best he had ever known!"

Alcoholics Anonymous, 1st Edition. Bill's Story, pg 11.

I love this. It's so hopeful and true.
I look at my life then and now and know with 100 per cent certainty that it is nothing short of a miracle!!

Thanks for sharing!
