Every day I have a choice – to pick up a drink or not. It’s something that gets easier over time, but it still remains.
One drink will send my addiction into motion.
It’s a life-changing decision which can be made impulsively rather than thoughtfully.
When the thought may arise, I should ask myself if I’m ready to destroy my relationships with others, my livelihood, my self-respect, my future, and my relationship with God.
That is the magnitude of the decision. Everything that I put before my recovery I will lose.
That’s why I do what I do.
God, please help me to be ok today. Thank You. Amen.
