I once thought that I couldn’t get through a day without alcohol. It seemed impossible. I have found that without alcohol, anything is possible. Without alcohol, I may become the person I was meant to be. I see it in others. I see it in me. The transformation is astounding. God, please help me

Things always have a way of working themselves out. Instead of trying to affect outcomes to my liking, sometimes it’s better stand back and do nothing. Worry and impatience are a waste of energy. Time takes time. God always has the answers. It’s always best for me to wait for God. God, please help
