From Alcohol To God

 

Tablo reader up chevron

Introduction

Dear Reader,

I write this book in poem style as God gave me the Gift after saving me from alcohols clutches.

I want to share my story and let others with addictions see there is a way out.

I tried to do it myself but kept slipping back.

It wasn't till I was at rock bottom until I cried out for help and God pulled me out the muck.

I bear my soul in my writing in order to help others.

No Friend Of Mine

I once had a friend I used to keep

Hidden under my pillow when I tried to sleep

Or, placed in places hidden from view

The life I lived was so untrue

 

That friend started of as a wee acquaintance

And then years after put me in a trance

It was no more a friend than the devil himself

Destroying and maiming bringing down my health

 

One day that friend I could no longer keep

It had blinded and scared me, making me weep

Thank God for a Friend so kind and true

He broke that bottle and made my life new

Pain

Pain! So hard to focus on much else

Pain! So easy to look inward feeling sorry for yourself

Pain! Robs you of the joys life has for you

Pain!Makes it hard to accept God cares for you

Aah! But what does scripture say?

The joy of the Lord is your strength, all the day

Overcoming the pain with His Word is the way

Not easy I know as have struggled each day

Singing praise through the pain works as well

Putting moaning aside lifts you from that hell

So, as hard as it is to look past it to praise

Let's fight past it and our voices raise

For God hears and He helps us to help ourselves

Pain! satans tool to lead us astray God turns to good when in His Word we delve
