Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.
Daily Meditation 1/4/10
Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
-Step Four of Alcoholics Anonymous.
We avoid the Fourth Step. We put it off. Were scared of what we will find inside us.
We may find out were mean, angry, selfish, afraid. We might see how badly weve acted to others, to ourselves. We have power to hurt, and weve used it. We all have these things inside us.
We also have love, trust, faith and hope. We love art, music, nature, or sports. We have power to heal, and we have used it too.
The Fourth Step helps us to know our inner power. As we learn about our power, we can use it carefully, on purpose, to do good.
Prayer of the Day
Higher Power, help me use my power to do Tour will. Let Your power work through me too.
Action for the Day.
Today Ill watch my own actions and words. Ill see how my power affects others. Ill talk about this with my sponsor.

And I wasnt going to do that I was taking that to the grave with me. But lucky for me at the time I wanted this new life I had found in sobriety more than I wanted the misery of my past.
Not only is this disease progressive but so is sobriety. So with the help of my sponsor at the time I put pen to paper. I didnt think I could write anything but as soon as I started I couldnt stop.
I relate a lot to the reading today.
God Bless
