When I begin with 'I am willing', I am using the key that leads to action, honesty, and an openness to a higher power moving through my life
Kickstart your day with Alyssa in this episode of AA Morning Snippets. Alyssa, an alcoholic, begins with a moment of silence for all those affected by alcoholism, followed by the serenity prayer. This sets a reflective and hopeful tone for the day's journey towards recovery. Alyssa shares her personal struggles and triumphs, emphasising the importance of willingness in spiritual growth.
She recalls a time when she couldn't find a reason to believe in her life, despite having found solace in AA. A friend's advice to simply be willing to believe sparked a turning point for her, leading to action, honesty, and openness to a higher power. The episode also touches on the destructive nature of alcoholism, describing it as an unnatural act against our instinct for self-preservation.
Alyssa explains how the grace of God can intervene, helping individuals overcome their obsession with alcohol and reigniting their will to live. She highlights that spiritual experiences provide new motivations that far exceed any form of discipline or belief. These experiences are not instant fixes but rather opportunities for a renewed life. The episode concludes with the Lord's Prayer, reinforcing the spiritual foundation of the recovery journey.
Alyssa's heartfelt plea for sobriety and her encouragement to 'keep coming back' remind us that recovery is an ongoing process that requires daily commitment. Whether you're struggling with alcohol addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of personal anecdotes and broader reflections that can inspire and motivate you to stay on the path of recovery. Feeling inspired? Tune in and let Alyssa's journey and reflections guide you through your own recovery process.
