Is God the Cure for Alcoholism?
Published by Stan
Came across this post on beliefnet.com and it got me thinking. I believe that this author scratches the surface of a huge issue for us alcoholics - What do you think?
Faith, the Spiritual Faculty
Alcoholism is a disease of faith. Alcoholics often develop a cynical attitude toward life, not seeing anything to believe in. When you persistently feel the need to change your consciousness through drugs or booze, you are expressing a lack of trust in life itself. And, in some ways, you are expressing a lack of trust in yourself, in your ability to tolerate life undiluted, to find value in your own, unadulterated experience. |
