People like me can’t do “just a little bit”. We are alcoholics and addicts. When it comes to alcohol and drugs, we do as much as we can for as long as we can. The insidious nature of our disease is that there are times when we convince ourselves that we can handle it. “This…

Happy Easter! Today I am grateful for the second chances in my life. Although I may not think I deserved them, God thought differently. God has taken me from my misery and given my life purpose. God, thank you for today, for carrying me, for bringing me here, and for giving me this life.…

If I’m not feeling a connection with God, it can be a little unsettling. The problem is within me. I can’t force it. I need to allow it to happen. I can pray until cows come home and not feel it. God is always with me. He wants me to seek Him always. God is…

Everything happens in God’s Time. Whether I think I’m ready or not, life is going to change. Sometimes I welcome the change, sometimes I don’t. If I keep a conscious contact with God today, I will be able to handle whatever life throws at me. God, please help me to be ok today. Thank…

If the person I am in-private is different than the person I am in-public, perhaps I need to do a personal inventory. Hanging onto my favorite character defects for my own selfish intentions is harmful to me. Using my character defects to hurt others takes me further from God and closer to the person I…

Even when I have to do the things I don’t want to do, I need to remain grateful. After all, my life could have gone in a completely different direction. A little penance doesn’t hurt. God, please help me to be ok today. Thank You. Amen.
