8:21 am here and I would love to have another 24 hours of sobriety, please.
SoberLeigh was asking "What is an H & I panel, Bobbi?"
I believe that means "Hospitals & institutions."

"THE QUALITY OF FAITH"
This . . . has to do with the quality of faith. . . . In no deep or meaningful sense had we ever taken stock of ourselves. . . . We had not even prayed rightly. We had always said, "Grant me my wishes" instead of "Thy will be done."
— TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 32
God does not grant me material possessions, take away my suffering, or spare me from disasters, but He does give me a good life, the ability to cope, and peace of mind. My prayers are simple: first, they express my gratitude for the good things in my life, regardless of how hard I have to search for them; and second, I ask only for the strength and the wisdom to do His will. He answers with solutions to my problems, sustaining my ability to live through daily frustrations with a serenity I did not believe existed, and with the strength to practice the principles of A.A. in all of my everyday affairs.
in my own belief of God, he/she or it, guide me.
it is so wonderful to be sober and drug free,
I got one new granddaughter, today I became Canadian, my financial are in order, my dui is pay (soon to be driving again) got work, and all of that can be loose just with that first drink, that's why I keep coming here and AA having a higher power that I choose to call God to guide me every step of my life.
thank you for reading my ramblings.
