Sometimes We need A God with Skin On Him

 Don't drink, don't drug, go to meetings, help others, clean house, and trust God, now there's some dandy advice.
 Recovery from the bondage of addiction is painful to experience and excruciating to observe, and it matters little to the sufferer that much of the pain is self-inflicted, suffering is suffering no matter the cause. In our active addictions we set in motion events that will reach their inevitable conclusion whether we drink again or not. It is the sacred task of those of us who went through the painful early stages of recovery and broke into the sunlight of the spirit to encourage and urge the new person to stay the course, to assure them that their day in the sun is sure to come if only they stay free of alcohol and drugs.
Help is available......
Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Al-Anon Family Groups, and other groups too numerous to mention offer free, effective, and loving help for sufferers, from fellow sufferers who have found a way out. Sometimes we need a God with skin on Him, and prayer is often wasted unaccompanied by action. God bless and good luck. 
For more information go to these groups websites, find a meeting in your area and just go!!
