Finding Strength in Powerlessness: Daily Reflections with Craig M.
The alcoholic at certain times has no effective mental defence against the first drink, except in a few rarer cases. Neither he nor any other human being can provide such a defence. His defence must come from a higher power.
Ever feel like the battle against alcohol is one you can't win alone? In this episode of the 'Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast', Craig M. brings a series of powerful quotes that might just be the support you need. The theme of the day revolves around the concept of 'defense'—or rather, the lack thereof.
Craig starts by sharing a poignant quote from Alcoholics Anonymous about the mental defencelessness of an alcoholic, emphasizing that true recovery often begins with admitting our powerlessness and seeking help from a higher power. This sets the stage for a series of readings that delve into these themes further. One standout quote from 'Daily Reflections' highlights how helping others can not only bring joy but also strengthen one's own sobriety.
Craig passionately discusses how service to others is a cornerstone of recovery, providing both emotional fulfillment and a practical way to stay sober. The episode wraps up with a calming meditation and a heartfelt prayer, focusing on seeking God's will and staying conscious of His presence. Craig also invites listeners to join Transitions Daily's secret Facebook group, where they can discuss these daily readings and find community support.
Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this journey for a while, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of companionship.
