in my few days back to back in this program we call Narcotics Anonymous, i have heard people say that they have been recovered by the grace of God. funny how they say that. after over 2 decades clean i have still not been hit up side the head by the magic wand of recovery. i am a true believer that God brought me to NA and NA brought me to God. yes i attend church, but i also attend a lot of NA meetings and am of serivce as the RCM one for my area at Region. we recently had one of those Recovered types with 14 yrs clean go back out because he stopped doing the thingsd that got him those 14 years in the first place. he put his Recovery on the back burner and relapsed. also for those who say they have been recovered by the grace of God why do they even attend meetings if they are recovered. please don't misunderstand me the lie is dead we do recover. but we never and i mean never become recovered. no where in the Basic text of NA does it ever say we become recovered. I truly hope you never run across one of those type of people because sooner or later they are going back out. it's just a matter of time before they stop attending if your new to recovery give it one year and if you don't like the person you've become or you don't believe your an addict anymore we will refund your misery 100%. it's your choice. NA hugs and love, JJ |
