When we were in the midst of our alcohol addiction most of us were used to
living in fear. When we get sober does not mean this changes immediately. We
fear the unknown, something that has happened, going to happen, or losing
people, places, or things. Sometimes this is just par for the course on our
journey through recovery. However, there are times that things beyond our control
come into play and our deepest fears come to light. It’s at this point that we
must turn to our higher power to pull us through. Things don’t always turn out
the way we hope but all we can do is pray and know that there is a plan for us
all. We may not know how things will work out but if we have faith in a power
greater than ourselves then we will be able to walk through any fear that may
come up for us. Make the Choice
Many of us choose to make the supreme sacrifice and go back
to drinking rather than continue the fight. Through doing the 12 steps of recovery and going to an addiction recovery program
we are given the tools we need to cope with situations that we couldn’t handle
before. No matter how big or small the problem may be we never have to drink
over it and we never have to go through anything alone ever again if we don’t
want to. There are many people that are in recovery that will be happy to help
if we let them. If we take everything a day at a time or even a moment at a
time, then we can make it through anything.
