Once I received the gift of humility, the power of choice came quickly, and it brought the power to act and to make decisions for myself. I have my personal power in perspective by seeing through faith that God is the True Power. While in addiction, I had no choice in anything, alcohol stole everything from me, I was its slave, but in recovery, I know who I am and I have choice. Today I choose love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and gentleness.
