Being awake to the moment
Being awake to the moment, and carry the message to someone who is desperate to hear the message of the solution of AA, to do this through talking about my experience, and not about what I’ve read or heard others say.
I’d rather disturb you about hearing the truth that you may be trying to avoid it and it’s application in your life than to lie to you or sugar coat what I say. I am a drunk and a liar, most AA’s are, at least when they come I, and some remain they way they came in and only change the drink, from booze to coffee.
I have become recovered from a hopeless state of mind and body, a mind that can’t stop and a body that craves more of whatever sickness the mind can create.
Having no reservations or no lurking notions of any kind. The process that brings us to purpose of being free, the freedom from self, the bondage of self. The self is the selfish needs of a person living in fear, the fear of not getting what we want or what we think we need, a fear that a loving God won’t fulfill these needs if we were to have a faith that works in our life.
A wakened state will help us to see a Loving God working in our lives. God will separate us from the drink, when we do what we need to do. Just doing service will not keep me recovered, Just going to meetings will not keep me recovered, just reading this book will not keep me recovered.
But since everything is designed to bring us closer to God, closer to your hire power, hire to an awareness and a more and ever awakening state of being and consciousness, a spiritual consciousness.
The power we seek requires desperation to seek it. Without the willingness, we fall victim of judgment, prejudice, fear, all of these things will stop us dead in out tracks from getting started in this work.
What message am I giving, send to the new comer, or someone that I taking through the work. What is my ability to take someone through the work, to speak at meetings, to save another one of God’s children?
If I disturb you on the question of alcoholism its definitely a great thing, because if you are being disturbed by anything that I am saying it only means that I have said something that started to chip away at some of the lies your disease is telling are ok to do, have or say in your recovery.
