SAFE AND SECURE

“Much has already been said about receiving strength, inspiration, and direction from Him who has all knowledge and power.” Alcoholics Anonymous, page 85

"Tell me clearly what to do, and show me which way to turn." Psalm 5: 8

For what it's worth: My whole being was filled with fears and doubts that I could not admit, some even to myself. Alcohol made them all go away for a little while, but eventually lost its magic and added to the agony. Relief came only after years of sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous. That Program and a Higher Power rid me of the fears and doubts, and grew a confidence from personal experiences that I was safe and secure. Every time I sought God’s help, He came through, often in creative ways I could never have imagined. Now, any time life threatens me and I am doubtful our down right “chicken”, I go to my Heavenly Father and He will hold me close and remind me that all will be well. No matter what happens, He will show me the next step and even carry me through it, if need be.

God bless you!
