Starting Problem

I remember telling a friend years ago

that I didn't have a drinking problem,

From the Big Book:

"When many hundreds of people are able to say that the consciousness of the Presence of God is today the most important fact of their lives, they present a powerful reason why one should have faith."  c. 1939, AAWS, Alcoholics Anonymous, We Agnostics, p. 51.

Prayer for the day:

"I pray that I may become like a child in faith and hope. 
I pray that I may, like a child, be friendly and trusting." 
c. 1975, Hazelden Foundation, Twenty-Four Hours A Day, July 2.  

Quote for the day:

"Whatever you can do or dream you can do, begin it."  __Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

My share:

To those who claim there is no God, I respectfully submit this observation.  Without a notion of a power greater than myself,

my hold on reality was slipping away, I was on a downward spiral and my future looked not only bleak but brief.  That vista has been elevated and enhanced since I surrendered merely to the possibility that there might be a loving and nurturing spirit in the universe that not only created all things but provides whatever those things, those creatures need. As one of those creatures, I am grateful for the ability to accept things I cannot understand, things I cannot change.  Be Good To You, Dave.
