How can my child say
The only people who speak of God
Is because Heavenly Father is the only one left one has in their lives
How do I tell her it is not him who seeks me
But I he

There was a man who walk this earth
Hung on the cross for you and me
I don’t care I some think Jesus was nuts
He was real
That he made promises left for us
I would run to him if I saw him
But I seek him
I want the comfort of the promises
They are real
To many things happened in my life to say there isn’t a God

How do I tell my child it is by his grace every single day as o turn to him to give me the strength to go through another day with some joy
Why am I here
I don’t know
But I have a life of the spirit that I can tap into every single morning
It is so difficult to just make it through a day
I have no desire strength but I am sure
It will come
Something will jar me

How do I tell my child it is in
AA that I was saved
Saved in the spiritual journey that happens when one can see the light
And not pick up a drink
It is my choice of drug
And it is only because of a community filled with the spirit of God
That I be free
For the day I take one pill for anything other than what it is for
Is the day I put my meds I have become a slave to as pain has riddled this broken body
Is the day I pick up a drink
It is in the first three drinks as I remember it that gave me that feeling of everything will be okay
And then one sobers up
And then to repeat the cycle
To kill the pain of living life unhappy
To have family wants that alcoholic around to blame
As young as I was tasting my first drink and how it made me feel
And it grew and grew and grew
I thank God
Hi my child
Everyday for my love of sobering experience strength and hope for the future I will pray for you and hope that you see things differently and find God in your life

Raising them with a belief system
To say that Jesus Christ never walked this earth is where it all comes together
He lives
My I have hope for all of us
Me
