i was raised in a Christian home and knew what or who God was. even with that knowledge i still formed resentment and anger toward Him. when i began to get sober it was suggested that i rebuild a relationship with Him. it was quite an undertakin at 1st. today i am grateful He is a part of my life, i know today that i couldnt live life without Him. before comin into this thing we do, i knew what would, and did, take me away from my lifes struggles. it worked so well i didnt need to search out any other means of mitigation. alcohol was my answer to everythin, celebration or defeat, i had faith that alcohol would cure any disorder in my life. so, i had an idea of what faith was. misguided as it may have been, faith was somethin i knew. as i experienced, alcohol began to stop fixin me, i soon began to lose faith in alcohol as all areas of my life turned to shambles. even then i would still return to it repeatedly to try recapturin its fervor as it slipped even further away. it just became who i was. comin into this thing we do i learned of the faith required to make its spiritual principles work in my life. i watched and learned from others as they used faith as a backbone to their lives to live happy, joyous, and free once more. it started to become a pressin issue that i try this thing called faith to turn my life around. it gave me hope that i could live as others were. today faith is carried with me wherever i may roam. i dont know what tomorrow, or even the next minute brings, but i do know the serenity and peace this moment can bring when my faith is strong and intact. 1 day @ a time…
