Life comes through God, but He gives us choices at the same time.
When I was young, I choose to do it myself. I needed no help.
Now that I have torn my life and those around me to pieces, I find that I need a power greater than I.
When I let go and cried out to God, He was there.
He reached down and turned this heart of stone to clay and started to mold it anew.
He gave me a desire to get sober and to be of service to my fellow man.
I still make mistakes, but today I can also make amends and enjoy life.
My addictions which alcohol was only one can be given to Him. I can walk in newness of spirit, and seek that which is right.
I can walk after my savior knowing that He is in control daily and moment by moment.
May all who seek His guidance find freedom from our addictions.
