SLOW TO TRUST

"Then this message came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 'I am the Lord, the
God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me?'" Jeremiah 32:26-27 (NLT)

"They had visioned the Great Reality -- their loving and All Powerful Creator." Alcoholics Anonymous, page 161

For what it's worth: Alcohol lost it's magic and left me powerless, nearly dead. Nothing had helped until I finally tried Alcoholics Anonymous, but they were big on God, and, since I had cursed Him, I was extremely anxious. The people in AA fortified me by sharing their loving experiences with God until I was able to ask Him to please help me. His grace has been abundant throughout my years of sobriety. He has taught me through personal experiences that He is my Lord and nothing is too hard for Him. He has rescued me from extreme danger; healed my hurt; soothed my soul; granted me calm in chaos and peace in perdition. I have "visioned the Great Reality", my "loving and all powerful Creator". So, why am I still so slow to trust?

God bless you.
