One day at a time

I've been sober for a week! It feels amazing. This week was all about step 1- I've truly embraced the fact that I am powerless to my disease and with that truth comes strength, acceptance and POWER. I never ever thought this moment in my life would come. 

It isn't easy though. It's humbling. It's true that you have to take it one day at a time. Sometimes just a moment at a time. In the moments of weakness come strength though and 1 week in I'm feeling confident. 

Today I will become a godmother. My nephew will be baptized. I am trying to work on step 2. I feel like I have a complicated relationship with God. I'm trying to open my heart though. It feels symbolic that I will be back in church, becoming a godmother, 1 week into changing my life at the time Im trying to open my heart to God. I feel like I am worthy of this role now. God is putting many signs in front of me. I can see it. Feel it. 

So I will work on Step 2 this week even if it overwhelms me. Maybe more than Step 1. 

One day at a time...
