Oh hey, I can run out of money, I can run out of friends, I can run out of hope, but I can't run out of god.
Ever felt like giving up on the road to recovery? Ralph W from California knows that feeling all too well. Sober since 1986, Ralph shares his heartfelt story at the Fellowship of the Spirit Step 11 speaker series meeting in Toronto. The episode revolves around a powerful message from page 104 of the 12x12: 'All those who have persisted have found strength not ordinarily their own'.
Ralph dives into his own struggles, including the dark times he faced and how persistence played a crucial role in finding strength he never knew he had. In this episode, Ralph doesn’t shy away from discussing the role of therapy in his journey. He highlights how steps six and seven of the AA program have been pivotal in his recovery. But it’s not just about following the steps; Ralph emphasizes the importance of balancing learning with seeking.
He candidly talks about his spiritual journey, sharing how his belief system has evolved and how he discovered that one can never run out of God. Ralph's reflections are both inspiring and relatable. He brings a genuine sense of joy to the conversation, making it clear that recovery is not just about overcoming addiction but also about embracing a fulfilling life.
