Glad you got your payment, Monicau . Why would you gamble it? As you say, we have given enough to the” fatcats”.
Gambling is not a financial problem but it sure causes huge monetary losses. It’s usually that loss that brings us to our senses.
I think every illness is rooted in our emotions, Monica. I certainly do not believe that God wills illness on anyone. As a Christian, you will know He sent His Son to give us Life to the full, but he did say “My Kingdom is not of this world”, so we won’t see the full picture on this side of eternity!
This is not the place for religious debate, but our recovery and indeed our whole life and how we live it is rooted in our spiritual beliefs. I am 100% certain of who my Higher Power is. My recovery depends on His Grace.Of course I am free to accept or reject that grace. He gave me Free Will.Other people have different beliefs. That’s ok by me! We are all at different stages. The 12 Step Programme is a Spiritual Programme so that would suggest to me that gambling has roots in disordered spirituality. Yes, Monica, I hear you on the “healers”. I moved in those circles for years and saw a lot of damage. They couldn’t heal a sock. Most of them were their own best patients.
I hope your test results will be favourable, Monica.
I’m finding it hard to type. The keyboard is sticking and the words are not appearing as they should. I read all your posts though.
God is good.
God is Love.
Never forget that!
