Fruits of Love
January 22, 2023 Dear God, good morning. Thank you for a restful night. The book God’s promises for every day speak about, “What to do when you are frantic and stressed?” When I feel those feelings, I tend to overreact. Especially when my sisters team up against me. And it hurts my heart. I react and erupt like a volcano sometimes and this is not the way I want to live. I had to stop reading their text to me. They act like strangers to me, and it really hurts. They think I should repent to you, Jesus. Have they repented? This isn’t the first time they ganged up on…

God’s Will for Us
January 18, 2023 Dear God, good morning. I was reading the book God’s promises for every day. It writes, “What to do when you don’t understand God’s will? Sometimes I feel weak in my heart and soul, especially when I feel depressed. I inherited this from my parents, the depression. My spirit feels low today. Most times, I feel lost when it comes to the Bible. Maybe a Bible study can help come closer to you Jesus. And help me to understand what your will is for me. I am still taking baby steps in the fellowship. The fellowship has the Twelve and Twelve-step book. Step four brings up many…

God’s Faithfulness
January 11, 2023 Dear God, good morning. In the book, God’s Promises for every day writes, “What the Bible has to say about God’s Faithfulness?” I believe you have come to me so many times in my life. I did not know that you protected me my whole life, and I could not believe in you. I was severely abused as a child. I grew up to fast, and I never really had a childhood. I lost my siblings to the Department of Social Services (DSS). The social worker separated me from my sisters and brother. I was devastated when the social worker Amy came and took me away from…

Faith in Sobriety
January 10, 2023 Dear God, good morning. The topic I need to require is having faith in you, Lord Jesus. I begged you for help back in two-thousand-fourteen. I still drank alcohol and learned that my dog Annie-girl had four-stage cancer. The veterinarian told me the terrible news. And I had to put Annie girl down, which was the hardest thing I had ever done. I only had Annie for eight years. It broke my heart. I believe that Annie girl is on the rainbow bridge with other doggies. You gave me faith in Jesus. When I had a lovely dream of Annie’s girl. I remember waking up at six…

Job in Recovery
January 9, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading in the Life Recovery Bible is about “Job” Job was very close to God. He would do anything for God, even die for God. They were close and spoke to each other, even though Job was experiencing a great deal of pain. He trusted God. I, too, have a heart-to-heart conversation with you every morning Jesus. I write to you, Jesus, which brings me close to you, and I feel peace and safety knowing you are with me. Even though I may be going through a storm of emotions, I know you are with me. Emotions like anger, sadness, and frustration…

Searching and Fearless Inventory
January 7, 2023 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading from the Book, “The life recovery Bible writes about the fourth step.”We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.” Taking this step four seems impossible, but I think I’ll get through it with God’s help. I finished my list of resentments of others and why I had this bitterness against family members, friends, or institutions. Well, I’m getting close to putting closure on my resentment list. Back in the day, I resented everyone who was disrespectful to me or disrespectful to loved ones. I was the one to point out your charter defects when I was drinking alcohol and…

Surrender to Win
December 31, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today people in the fellowship shared about “Surender.” I floated around the fellowship going to sohba dances with sohba friends, and we went to sohba Anniversary Parties and Sohba Clubs. I just existed in the fellowship. We had a lot of fun, which is a part of sobriety. However, We have a Big Book and step book to work on our charter defects. Working on my charter defects is not easy. But I trust Terri, my friend, confidant, and sponsor; to tell her about the defects of the charter that hinder my spiritual growth. And I hope that I will feel better. When…
