“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” – Mother Teresa
This is a difficult time in my life, but it is not characterized with wallowing self-pity and defeat as in the past. I like to compare life to mountain climbing. I have just come to a steep and rocky passage. However, carefully placing one foot in front of the other will lead me to greater clarity and even a higher horizon than before. Experience tells me this and I believe it.
Each day that passes amazes me more and more with my absolute intense gratitude for being sober and for the program of Alcoholics Anonymous. It truly is a school for living. My husband and I have been doing ministry training for Christian Counseling, but I already know the lessons we are learning. I have already learned to be a God/love-based counselor in A.A. We really are all saying the same thing in different words.
A priest at the church where my husband and I were both raised told My husband that Unity Church is not “Christian.” Who cares what you call yourself? A rose called by any other name would smell as sweet and a person with a heart full of God is just as loving whether called “Christian,” “Buddhist,” or “Alcoholic.”
