Daily Reprieve

From the Daily Reflections of October 27;

The only thing that matters is that he is an alcoholic who has found a key to sobriety. These legacies of suffering and of recovery are easily passed among alcoholics, one to the other. This is our gift from God, and its bestowal upon others like us is the one aim that today animates A.A.’s all around the globe.   (Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, page 151)

The strength of Alcoholics Anonymous lies in the desire of each member and of each group around the world to share with other alcoholics their suffering and the steps taken to gain, and maintain, recovery. By keeping a conscious contact with my Higher Power, I make sure that I always nurture my desire to help other alcoholics, thus insuring the continuity of the wonderful fraternity of Alcoholics Anonymous.

I am apart of the collective consciousness of recovered alcoholics connected to the Infinite One with a singular message to share throughout the Earth.  That turns my humiliating and destructive disease into something rather epic, if I am able to stay connected to Gomu (God of my understanding) and the collective of the AA Fellowship.  I am truly grateful for this reality.
