TENACIOUS SHAME "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth." 2 Timothy 2:16 "...Almost every alcoholic has been marked by escapades, funny, humiliating, shameful or tragic." Alcoholics Anonymous, page 123 For what it's worth: My alcoholism was marked mostly by escapades that were shameful and tragic, and the sorrow and shame follow me long into sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous. Even sober, I was afraid God would not approve of me, so I have begged Him to teach me to trust His love. Years of sober experiences have been necessary for me to learn. Still, shame was so ingrained in my being I have to work hard each day to present myself to God unashamed about my past, accepting of the present, and hopeful about the future. God bless you. Joe W.
