Let us know if we can be of any assistance as you explore ways of becoming more engaged in life-changing volunteerism opportunities this year. There’s never been a better time to say “yes” and get involved with service work close to home or abroad-in our own communities, across borders, or even around the world. What are you doing on a regular basis for those less fortunate than you? Is there someone who needs your help right now? He has given me so much, and I want to give back freely in return. I have learned that the way God wants me to live is through giving. It seems like most days now are spent smiling because something great happened … And then another person comes along who needs help today too 🙂

I’m a recovering alcoholic and I learned that it’s not good to be too self-supporting. Through the recovery process described in the Big Book, I have come to realize that the same instructions that work on my alcoholism, work on much more. We will do this because we have learned to love God and one another. 'Quite as important was the discovery that spiritual principles would solve all my problems.'

We will make every personal sacrifice necessary to insure the unity of Alcoholics Anonymous. A series of theological reflections on the gospel of the day, intended to help us consider what our faith is calling us to as we travel through Lent. 2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up you discern my thoughts from afar. So don’t give up yet let us help you find a way through this difficult time!

Today is about taking back control of your life from addiction! Remember: You can’t drink like this forever, and it doesn’t take much for things to spiral out of control again. It’s so easy to lose yourself in alcohol because it numbs everything, but today is not about escaping reality. I know it’s hard to read these words when your head is spinning, and the pain in your stomach feels unbearable. I’m sorry that you’re reading this on a day where you are struggling.
