In Conclusion
Do you believe this impossible story? I can only say that what I have told you is God’s truth. It happened in 1982, and it’s still as vivid to me today as though it had happened yesterday.
I was taken out of the muck of my life… set on solid ground… and, piece-by-piece, He’s making me… from a feral savage animal… into a whole and loving human being.
If you have any doubts about my experience here as I have related it, I have to tell you that I walked out of that bedroom with all the power I needed to stay sober. Yes, Love is a power. Love is God. And He has the power to heal anyone… of anything. This loving God has been the only being more powerful than my earthly father. No more narcissism; no self-centered agenda; no requirement to perform; just love, guidance and help.
And this help is available for anyone who wants it.

He who began a good work in you will be faithful
to complete it until Jesus returns.

Hi there! Yes, I read it all. Just loved it. Actually, I’ve read through your entire blog this last week. I don’t even remember now how I found your blog, (you know how the Internet is… you click, click, click and find yourself somewhere!) but I’m really glad I did.
This maybe should be in a different comment thread but I feel it was meant to be that I found you. Your forgiveness post really, really hit home w/me. I’ve been interested in the concept of forgiveness for years and years… like a seed that was planted long ago. I never really understood exactly what it meant. Then, it finally clicked when I read your post. Thank you so much for it. I’ve made it part of my daily practice now.
You are a wonderful writer and a real inspiration. I know life can be extremely difficult and I wish you love and peace!

Thank you for all your kind words and encouragement. I’m glad the post on forgiveness helped you. It has really done the trick for me with my father. Now I’m finally doing it for my husband. I can not afford to hold any resentments against him… or anyone else. I know I won’t be able to stay away from the junk food if I don’t get rid of it soon. So far I have about 115 days off the junk. I used to live in the stuff before this.
