SECURE AND CONFIDENT
“…As we became conscious of His presence, we began to lose our fear of today, tomorrow or the hereafter.” Alcoholics Anonymous, page 63
“I know that God is for me.” Psalm 56:9
For what it’s worth: Anxiety and insecurity constantly attacked my alcohol weakened defenses and followed me into Alcoholics Anonymous. Years of hard work with the Twelve Steps, professional therapy, and the grace of God have proved necessary to combat these destructive aggressors. What works best for me is a strong relationship with my Heavenly Father. As that grows, I become more secure and less anxious. Each morning I remind myself that God is for me, here with me, and His Spirit is in me today. So, I am not alone; there is nothing to fear; and, I can not be inadequate in any way in anything He puts before me today. Therefore, I go into this new day secure and confident.
God bless you!
