A GIFT OF LOVE

"I have a conscious daily contact with my Creator today, and He loves me." Alcoholics Anonymous 469, (Fourth Edition)

"...The love of God has been poured out within our hearts..." Romans 5:5

For what it's worth: Alcoholism destroyed my relationships and left me with a deep fear that I was unable to love and to be loved. Had it not been for Alcoholics Anonymous, I would have died in despair with that feeling. Instead, I have been given a most precious gift, a sober life full of love. I am no longer worthless and inadequate. I can love and I am loved, not only by people, but by God, my Heavenly Father. My sober years in Alcoholics Anonymous, living the Twelve Steps, resulted in a spiritual awakening that is a daily closeness with my Heavenly Father. During the day I am filled with gratitude, knowing I love Him and He loves me. Usually, I can actually feel His love. On a spiritually dry day, when I do not feel His love, He always finds a way to let me know He loves me just as much. Even more important for me, when I mess up a day, He lets me know He loves me anyway, maybe even a little more because of my weakness that day.

God bless you!
