I had a horrible dream last night. I woke me up in a sweat..I know why I had it. I prayed for my family. I pray God will heal them, any pain my addition has caused. Their forgiveness doesn't erase their pain.
I haven't been to church...I hadn't prayed or had faith for a long time. I felt it was important to mention that to someone out there. God had laid his hand on me anyway. He has strengthened me this last 32 days in ways ONLY a higher power can. I am amazed and humbled. I remember a drunk night only a few days before my sobriety. Drunk I asked God, begged for him to do what I could not. I fully admitted I have an addition and needed his Grace...and I am reminded of footprints in the sand. It is then when I carried you......

Amazing what happens when we put our faith and life in God's hands. I tried it tens of thousands of ways on my own, when the answer was in front of me the entire time. For me, the main goal for the program of AA isn't necessarily sobriety or sober time, it's finding and maintaining a connection with God and Jesus Christ, who I am proud to say are my higher power.
Whoa that was churchy, LOL! God bless.

Woo Hoo!!!! Last business night...no alcohol. I fly home tomorrow, as soon as I land off to my iron infusion. I hope the second one makes a difference in my energy levels. I hope everyone has some restful sleep, until tomorrow.....!

Stay strong, no matter how strong any urges you have, THEY WILL PASS. Pray, stay busy, and talk to someone in your support system. Thank you for the support on SR. It means a lot to me. Sleep well everyone.
