When one alcoholic/addict shares with another alcoholic/addict

[MajestyJo]

Fear was something that I remember feeling at the age of 6. Most of my life was fear based. Everything seemed to be "Thou shall not..." and I always seemed to find a way to do and feared the wrath of God was going to strike me down dead." I am glad to know a loving and forgiving God in today. That doesn't mean that I should do the same thing over and over again and expect different results, that is addiction, the nature of my dis-ease.

They say: Face Everything And Recover. I have a choice, I can choose to be "Frustrated, Egotistical, Anxious, and Resentful. You can substitute any word for these letters F E A R and it all boils down to the fact that we lack faith. Faith and fear can not occupy the same place. Many do not believe this, but it is true. God either is or He isn't. No matter who you believe God to be, be it Good Orderly Direction, Group of Drunks and/or Drug Addicts showing me a new way of life, when I stay connected, grounded in today, I do not have to walk in fear. I am never alone unless I choose to be. Isolation is part of my dis-ease.
