Step TWELVE

Step TWELVE

Having had a spiritual awakening

as the result of these steps,

we tried to carry this message to alcoholics,

and to practice these principles in all our affairs

.

I can do things I never could do before. I do not have to use today. I could never say that before and this is a lie. There was a time where I didn’t use, but there is a part of me that doesn’t want me to remember that. I’ve been set free. Because of the fact I’m clean, I’m allowed to do many things I never dreamed I could ever do. I’m looking at the world with a different set of eyes.

.

So surely I’ve had some kind of spiritual awakening.

.

Now, I’m charged with a responsibility. There really are no free rides; you have to pay for what you receive. I am now charged with the responsibility of carrying THIS message to other alcoholics (addicts); not ‘a’ message, not ‘the’ message, not ‘some’ message, ‘THIS’ message.

.

What is THIS message?

.

“Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, …”

.

.

I’m not like I used to be. If you’re in AA/NA today and you’re all screwed up, you don’t feel good, you’ve been doing a little drinking/drugging or even thinking about it – I know exactly where you’re coming from. That’s where I came from too. But, I applied these first eleven steps and I had a spiritual awakening, so I’m not that way anymore. You can do the same. It’s the main message that the AA Big Book has.

.

There’s no doubt in my mind God picked me out.

He let me suffer from my drug use so I would learn what He wants me to know.

And then when He got ready to utilize me,

He removed the obsession to use.

That’s the reason I’m here today-

to be able to help other addicts/alcoholics.

.

I have found my purpose,

we hope you are fortunate to find yours!
