I had the pleasure of meeting and hearing him twice in Cali. in 1990. What a beautiful soul and his wife Max, just so darling. Relapsed after 5 years and the last 25 years has been a painful test of this allergy that I have. Came back a couple of months ago and the first thing I grabbed I after coming out of hospital, was my Big Book and the first thing I read was Acceptance is the answer.....Listening to these wonderful tapes and listening to experience, strength and hope has been a blessing.....One day at a time. Thank you posting the message of this beautiful human being known a as Dr. Paul....❤❤❤
Laughter and Identification are the healers...."primary purpose is to Start drinking." haha...can you imagine. "God will ask me...Did you know how much I loved you",,, Law of Appreciation...Looking for the Good in Everything....
We admitted we were powerless over alcohol-that our lives had become unmanageable. For I am convinced that neither death nor life nor angels nor governments nor things now here nor things to come nor powersh 39 nor height nor depth nor any other creation will be able to separate us from God’s love that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. “Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon your own understanding.”-PROVERBS 3:5. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. “Openly confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may get healed.” (James 5:16) Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. “In my flesh, there dwells nothing good.” (Romans 7:18) Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. “If, then, you are bringing your gift to the altar and you there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar, and go away; first make your peace with your brother, and then, when you have come back, offer up your gift.”-Matt. 5:23, 24. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics and to practice these principles in all our affairs. Jesus said to him: “Get up! Pick up your mat* and walk.”+ 9 And the man immediately got well, and he picked up his mat* and began to walk. Bill W. Quotes this one in the big book ^^^ Jesus says, 'no one comes to the Father except through me.' (If you are rationalising, you are doing something wrong - mine) Jehovah is God, may He pour His Holy Spirit out upon us. Jesus Christ is Lord, Saviour and King. Maybe I'll stick around A.A. in case I can help someone else. The teachers shall be judged more harshly than the students. Jehovah has the final say.
Thank you Paul.
