What a marvellous thought. I have seen so many people leave the fellowship when they hear people talk about God, Jesus, and religious beliefs. They can't seem to grasp that this is a spiritual program and all religions are included, along with those who don't believe in any type or concept of God. It is God as I understand Him, not as you understand Him. Not how you understand Him and it is your duty to tell me that I should believe in your God too. I found that spirituality enhanced my religious beliefs. My religious beliefs enhanced my spiritual beliefs. I felt that I was doubly blessed. My God is so much bigger than I ever thought He could be. I call my God Him because it is much easier to say that then He/She/It. My God is as He/She/It reveals themselves to me in today. I left God and the church many years ago. I returned to the church and left again. It was in AA and Al-Anon that I found the answers. Before going there, I could stop, but couldn't stay stopped. As a result of finding a spiritual way of life, I have been able to stop one day at a time for several 24 hours. If you bring the body, the mind and soul will follow. Posted on another site in 2012. You can't outrun God! He is there whether you don't see or believe in Him. There is someone or some thing that makes the world go round and I am not the Source. Don't leave someone outside the circle. This is a we program and not for the selected few. Many people need the program, but it works best for those who want it. It is a Spiritual Program, based on no particular form of religion or concept. As my service sponsor said to me, "I don't care who your God is as long as it is not You! ![]()
