If you show up in a house of worship, drunk, hung over, disheveled, smelly, you may very well be asked to leave or at least everyone will avoid you. If you show up at a recovery meeting like that, they welcome you just as you are. And they talk to you. I think my God likes the recovery meeting attitude better that the worship place. I try to keep this in mind whenever my mind begins to go small.
In recovery, you will also be asked to keep coming back and it's truly meant. That is my Love/God in action, to me at least!
