Am I The Only One?
Posted: Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:10 pmGreetings,
I am Real and I am a recovering alcoholic. By the Grace of God I am sober today.Today is all I have.
Tomorrow, I will ask God for strength to get me through the day without a drink or drug.
I am writing this because I have been here a long time and seen many come and go.
I am firm to believe God sent me here to help those who are dealing with types of addictions.
Many times a day and night I log on and go through the Forums here.
I am not a counselor nor therapist.
I can only share what it was like out there drinking,drugging and gambling and how others have stayed clean and sober.
Having said that, I know there are people here who have some type of life-controlling problem.
We can/are an emotional people.
I was reading a post that was posted in 2008 in this Forum saying they were silent and did not want people to know about it, ASSUMING people would think or act different towards them.
When I told of all my past "junk" and opened up and shared here; I and was amazed of the love and acceptance I received here. I mean, this is a computer and I knew I probably would not ever meet anyone here, although I did go to an Oasis gathering a few years ago and met Oasis,Phan and about 50 others being blessed.
I also write this knowing that guess from the outside of membership can read our post and not become a member.
Oasis is a type of online hospital for those who have problems to come and get help as well as to fellowship with and become friends with others.
I just want everyone to know that one does not have to have an addiction that views this Forum. Most all people have family members or friends who have these issues. People learn from people.
I am one who types with two fingers, therefore I do not go into the chatroom much but would like to state that I usually always know the names and profiles of those who are members. I stay in the background mostly and the Forums is where I spend my time.
In conclusion, I felt led to post this to let people know that God loves a humble person and He came to save the lost and hurting soul. I may not can give an answer at first,but, know that you will be in my prayers. I am always close by. members here that God uses in many areas of life.
We are many members of the Body of Christ.
I have many things I would like to say but I will let my words be few as I pray for the hurting soul.
One does not have to be a Christian to be a member,but can come and graze around as there are many studies and people all over the world who come and visit.
God is Love and I love the hurting soul. At one time, I cared about nothing but ME and worldly pleasures in which are temporary.
God can give us a different life that can be rich in love and the deep things of life that matters while we are still in this evil world. HE is the one who has the POWER to overcome if we are willing let HIM work in and through us.
In Christ Love,
