Today is June 22nd, and for alcoholics like myself, that means it’s time to reflect on our drinking habits. Have I been staying within my limits? Am I drinking in a way that is healthy and positive? These are the kinds of questions I ask myself every day as part of my recovery process.
Reflecting on your drinking habits can be difficult, but it’s an important step in maintaining sobriety. If you’re struggling with alcoholism, don’t hesitate to seek out help.
There are plenty of resources available to you, and there is no shame in admitting that you need help. With support from friends and family, as well as addiction treatment programs, you can overcome alcoholism and start living a healthier life.
Daily Reflections June 22
This brought me to the good healthy realization that there were plenty of situations left in the world over which I had no personal power – that if I was so ready to admit that to be the case with alcohol, so I must make the same admission with respect to much else. I would have to be still and know that He, not I, was God.

I used to be so caught up in fighting myself and everyone else that I would spend hours a day on the internet looking for validation.
It took me years of self-destructive behavior before someone told me it was okay not give a flying flip what anyone thought about my lack thereof!
Finally, one night everything changed when out of nowhere this idea arrived – could you just try letting go? And with those words came peace like nothing else had ever done before…
The acceptance I have learned has given me peace of mind. It is time to let go and give control over to God, who will never leave you or forsake you.
You are His child. He loves you unconditionally and wants the best for your life!
