God
thank you so much for being there for me. even when all I can pray is "Father" I immediately feel you with me.
I've never been able to fill the void left when my dad walked out on us. I was 8 years old and it felt like my world was ripping apart. over the years I began to visualize my soul as being in the shape of a ring, the inside of which was a bottomless pit. for years I've thrown everything in that pit trying to fill it up, alcohol, drugs, women...name it. God told me in prayer that he would fill that hole in, but that's not all. He also said that He would build something beautiful there in it's place. I will let Him do that and be His willing worker in this.
if anyone here ever benefits from anything I say, if anyone sees anything good in me they are catching a glimpse of God in me. By myself I am nothing.

That was beautiful! Today I went to church for Ash Wednesday and saying the Contrition prayer took on a whole new meaning now that I am sober. It is like when I abstain from alcohol I am making a deliberate choice to be closer to God. Thanks again. xo
