I Drank for Sophistication... and became crude.
I Drank to find Peace... and ignited a war within myself.
I Drank to be Friendly... and became argumentative and nasty.
I Drank to be Sexy... and turned people off.
I Drank so that I could Relate to Others... and I babbled.
I Drank to put down Loneliness... and found myself retreating more and more into my shell.
I Drank to Relax... and woke up tense.
I Drank to be Entertaining... and became an obnoxious clown.
I Drank to Live More Fully... and contemplated suicide.
I Drank for Adventure... and discovered disaster.
I Drank to be more Honest... and insulted my friends.
I Drank to Quiet my Nerves... and woke up with hangover jangles.
I Drank to Feel Better... and ended up sick and throwing up.
I Drank to have Fun... and passed out in the middle of the party.
I Drank to Pep Myself Up... and ended up exhausted.
I Drank to feel Successful... a Big Shot... but ended up a failure.
I Drank for Security... and became afraid of my shadow.
I Drank to Feel Better about Myself... and ended up hating me.
I Drank to prove I could handle Alcohol... and ended up knowing it
controlled me.
A Friend asked...
"But surely, now that you've been Sober awhile, it would take a lot of alcohol to put you back in that condition."
"Just One Drink," I answered!

PRAYER
Father, we know that we are unworthy of Your love. Yet, like that of little children, we have confidence and trust in your immense love and mercy. We ask you for the grace of a deeper love for your Son, our Lord, Jesus. As we grow in intimacy with Him who is the Way, the Truth and the Life, may we come to know Him more closely, love Him more dearly and serve Him more generously. Amen.

Really, this message was meant for me. God has really used it to
encourage me and made me know the reason why certain friendship
relationship could not continue. The reason they came into my life could
not have been for a lifetime any way, so why do I have to worry.
God is faithful and closer to us even more than our thoughts. He knows
where it hurts and is always present to offer help in times of need.
Thank you for allowing God to use you to minister to me.

Dear all,
I do thank you very much for your words that lighten our way everyday. In the daily letters, there was a prayer at the end of them. These prayers are not available now, plz put them once more.
Thank you,
