Better Than Who?

 There can be a tendency among those in recovery or who go regularly to their worship services, to think that they are better than those who don’t or are not in recovery.  They suffer from the tendency to superiority.  It is illogical and a deficiency in their spiritual practice.  They compare, which separates.  “There but for the grace if God go I,” is more the attitude that I try to practice.  There was a time when I neither went to church nor was in recovery.  Then Grace came into my life.  A free gift, unearned.  I try not to forget the past.  It keeps me right-sized.
