I've been in AA for the past eight years and find it a very interesting way 
to find out who people are by what they believe in...Where does your faith 
lie? I was told early in the program that my believe and faith in God would 
decide if I recovered from a hopeless state of mind and body or if I stayed 
in the diease.  Whats your thoughts?  It's been a long hard struggle to find 
a faith that works but when I finally surrendered and quit trying to work so 
hard the teacher appeared.  Life still has its ups and downs but I found I 
have not been tempted that that God has not giving me a way to endure through 
it and life has actually become an adventure.  I have been blessed with the 
return of my family and have for the first time in my life been able to form 
a partnership with my fellow human beings.  God has made all this possible 
for me when I do his will...
Doing Gods will is the hard part because all the things in me are usually the 
opposite of Gods will.  Lust...Greed...Glutony...etc.  
Prayer keeps me out of myself and in touch with God the Father.  And a lot of 
following his Son.
The truth is in the book....READ....
