I just got off thephone with Phyllis from Ohio. IT was so interesting...she had a "slip" but actually had made it all the way to becoming a relapse recovery prevention sponsor but she slipped herself so now she said to me she was 12 days abstinent! So impressive that she would be so honest with someone she doesn't know when she could have just said oh I've been abstinent for 3 years etc. Amazing. This rpgram is so humbling. It makes you realize you don't have to lie and decieve anymore because no one will judge you..just love here....that is what I have felt so far. So awesome. ....
Question 8
It is so intersting that the very first step first line of this program is that admission of powerlessness. Beyond food this goes into every aspect of our lives...in order to live a godlike like an all respects we have to come to that...complete and total submission to God's grace and power and admit our nothingness....and only then will the greatest power be exercised in our lives. ....so inspiring! I love that word powerless now...it has taken on a whole new meaning, a positive meaning...I used to think it was abhorent to admit you are powerless....but it is the opposite....through letting go of our own notion that we can control we open the door to Heavenly FAthers blessings in our lives.
