This morning I woke up late and had to dart out of bed to work. I had to stop and pray at my desk.

Today at our noon meeting we read the end of Dr. Bob's story. I related to his routine of the vicious cycle of powerlessness and then how he tried to get sober with the Oxford groupers and then finally got the message from Bill W. but didn't stay sober until he was willing to make amends. I got to carry the message that I used to live that way and then got into the fellowship but wasn't willing to connect and let people in my comfort zone and get completely honest and didn't stay sober until I did.

A guy thanked me for sharing this and I got to carry the message today.

This afternoon when I got back I was able to post about insanity and being happy joyous and free.

This evening we all got along and were in good spirits at home. My wife got assertive with me about how she needs to get to meetings. I had to rethink my position but we both agreed that when school is over that we will be ok.

I got to take a bike ride by myself before settling in tonight.

We got the kids to bed on time tonight and I got to spend some quality, focused time in prayer and reading God's word tonight.

Thanks be to God for a great day.
