JUST FOR TODAY! -- Same Road

From "Flooded with Feeling:"

"When I first came to AA, I thought everyone had drunk more than I had, that everybody had gotten into more trouble.  But I kept coming to meetings, and after a while, I began to realize that I was on the same road.  I just hadn't gone as far -- yet."

c. 2001, Alcoholics Anonymous, page 369

Just for Today -- A Daily Devotional

**********************************

The trough is there are some cases that seem worse then ours -- but the truth is we are all traveling down that same destructive path.  My daughter when she first began attending AA, would always come home and say “I am not like those people.”  I would respond, you are correct, you are not like those people -- because they are acknowledging their condition and are seeking healing -- you aren’t.  Until she realized that truth, she was on the same destructive road – is when she woke up -- she was thankful, and now has over seven years of sobriety.  

They will come with weeping;

    they will pray as I bring them back.

  I will lead them beside streams of water

    on a level path where they will not stumble,

  because I am Israel's father,

    and Ephraim is my firstborn son.

"Hear the word of the LORD, O nations;

    proclaim it in distant coastlands: -- Jeremiah 31:9-10
