Well in the last few days, I have been dealing with some trauma memories, that have been difficult, and have been sharing all of this with my own Therapist, in detail and will continue to do so, for a while, twice a week.
Powerlessness, Prayer, using all the tools of the Program. Just one little step in front of the other, and walk right through this difficult work.
Then, seems like my Prayers were heard. Felt a Miracle in my life today, had a conversation with a wonderful woman I am Sponsoring, and we did have some time, and we did have a conversation that lasted well over an hour. And the focus was about her New Sobriety, she now over 60 days, and she is like watching a flower blossom. Feel a bond that only two alcoholics can have, beginning to grow, and this was the answer my heart was longing for.
In this conversation, I could actually feel the restoration of my Spirit being returned to me, erasing the pain in my heart, and replacing it with a very Powerful sense of God working in my Life. Pain replaced with Joy, my heart is so full of Gratitude, cannot even begin to describe how it feels.
The Power of Prayer, and the Power of Love, when we acknowledge the simple love that does exist between so many of us. God is watching us, and how we care for one another. Feel this so strongly.
Just sharing a wonderful God filled afternoon with my friends here.
Isn't it just ducky when you're down in the dumps and something like that happens to lift your spirits. I'm so very happy for you Toni and hope that it sees you through 'till the downtime has passed!...Tim
