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…

Grace of God in Recovery
November 12, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading is about “The Grace of God.” And if we follow your teachings and do not sin anymore. The Bible writes, You gave me life and showed me kindness, and in your care, you watched over my life.” Job 10-12 When I do look back, I can now see that you were with me in my darkest days while I was drinking. I was a falling down piss my pants, blackout alcoholic. I still kept drinking my sorrows away. I thought I was too young for this fellowship when I was twenty. Until I saw a lot of young people in the…

Rebel Without a Clue
October 27, 2022 Dear God, good morning. I’m sick with a terrible cough and body aches. I wanted to have my commune with you this morning. I still feel weak physically, and my coughing still lingers. It is probably the flu, and my headache went away. Thank you, Jesus. Today’s reading is from God’s Promises, for every day writes, ” What to do when you feel rebellious.?” I was always a rebel who resisted rules. I was a wild child running around Boston at fourteen, and I knew every train station in Boston and the surrounding towns. The Department of Youth Services (DYS) was responsible for my safety and…

Grateful
September 13, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading is about rejoicing in the Lord, and I am always happy and grateful for you, Jesus. I rejoice morning. I am always looking forward to writing to you, and I receive joy when I do to you write. God, there has been a special bond we have together since last year. I can’t explain it, but getting to know you, Jesus is a wonderful feeling. You came to me when I cried out for you and held me until I stopped weeping. I felt the warmth of your arms around me. I did not know what was happening to me. Only…

Spirituality Versus Adversity
August 13, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Please give me patience this morning. I need all the spirituality I can get. Gary told Roman we were going to John’s cookout, but he couldn’t go. Roman started getting aggressive and worse. He got upset when I told him the cookout was private. Roman was demanding to use Gary’s phone. Gary told him to leave, and Roman forced his way into Gary’s room. Gary got up, and Roman physically pushed Gary. Gary was shaking and upset. Gary told Roman either you go into a day program, or if not, Geri and I are moving. Roman proceed to destroy my bedroom. I ended…

“The Peace That I Have Found Within”
How beautiful it is, the peace that I have found within, for life can be difficult, life can be painful, life can be heartbreaking, life can be unapologetic, life can make your knees buckle, but you can stand tall at the end, have faith In Him. I understand there are many of you that have different beliefs than I do, but we are all sitting on the same sinking ship, we just have different views from which we sit, I pray for us all. My faith is strong, and my prayers are continuous, I refuse to let adversity interrupt my spiritual growth, uninterrupted it shall remain, for the clock ticks loudly. Through trial…

Step-4
Step 4: Made a searching a fearless moral inventory of ourselves. After being in the program a while and getting through the first three steps, I’ll admit I was a little nervous about step 4. People told me it was the “the make it or break it” step and how some folks even relapsed during this time because it brought back a lot of trauma. I mean hell, who wants to revisit the past that we shoved so far deep down into our souls that we tried to forget? But, we have to be FEARLESS. Some things we have to just do afraid. If we ever wait…

Friends and Gratitude
June 2, 2021 Good morning, dear God. I’ve been up since four-thirty feeling happy and had coffee with Gary and he’s the backbone of putting together the website godletters.org. The website was Gary’s idea. I have so much gratitude for him because he did all the background work. He is my big brother and my true friend and I love him dearly. Today’s reading is about Jesus being your Friend. I was taught that Jesus is the son of God, but my little brown book, God’s Promises for Every Day states: “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door,…

Recovery and the Holy Spirit
June 1, 2022 Good morning, Dear God. We need to go food shopping. Then at eight-thirty, I read Terri my dear God’s letter, and we move to recovery issues about my resentments list. It seems that my resentment list is getting larger. My first resentment was against Santa Claus, and I also put him on my list. Today the Holy Spirit helps in my recovery. Today’s reading writes, “Jesus is your “Security” today in my life. I truly believe that you, Jesus, changed my soul to be graceful, loving, kind, speak the truth, and have love for everyone that’s touched my heart. And for those who drive eighty miles an…
