Fellowship of the Spirit

What a wonderful gift it is to be in recovery. To see people, to hear them, to love them and to let them love you. Its just a wonderful feeling.

I just spent the evening with my AA sponsor, my sober brothers and sisters, and my extended sober family. My grand-sponsor was there too. It was “awesome”.

If you are new or still struggling with getting or staying sober all this fellowship stuff might just sound weird to you. And you might even be saying “thanks, but no thanks. I don’t need or want this”.

But the truth is: it is just such a beautiful gift. Especially seeing people who once thought the only way to have fun was to get drunk and high on everything sit and eat a sober meal talk and spend quality time together.

My life just feels wonderful today, and for that my God I am grateful!

    Thanks a lot for the post. It is very inspiring to hear recovered alcoholics talk about being grateful for life and it’s many gifts. I got clean and sober with the help of a sober living called New Life House. Check out their site if you are looking for help. New Life House – A Structured Sober Living
