im gonna share my favorite one....i am the oldest of 4 kids, my brother is a year younger than me. we grew up in hell, abuse, addiction neglect ect. so we were very close, extra bonded. i cleaned up first. he was angry and hurt, felt like i abandoned him.his addiction became much worse, all i could do was pray for him cause he wouldnt talk to me anymore. i was so afraid he was gonna die some horrible way. to make a long story short, 12 years later he phones me and says i am ready to go to treatment can you help me? he told me when he was about a year clean what happened. he said he was in bed with his girl feeling in despair about the way his life had gone and didnt want to die like this when an angel appeared, he was so surprised, he nudged his girlfriend and said 'can you see that?' no she says. so hes looking at this and the angel speaks to him. she says "dont worry dave, everythings gonna be alright" and he tells me the angel spoke with my (his sister) voice. hes been clean 6 years now, we are so grateful to this program. it brought us both out of hell. thanks guys....love ya
when i was really down once i saw my inner child. it was the strangest experiance i've ever had. and the most touching. that day i found and made peace with myself . i wrapped this child in my arms and told her everything would be ok and that i was there for her and i would love and protect her, that she was not alone . as she cried in my arms i became whole ....HP works in incredible ways....
thanks for sharing and yes NA is awsome, glad you're here , there's strength in number's
Thanks Galeon and Peggy for sharing those spiritual experiences. It's amazing that what we once thought of as some unattainable or impossible theories of spirituality which is only for prophets and saints to achieve, all of a sudden, become part of our own reality, when we clean up our act and start working the NA program... The designs and miracles of the Higher Power become so evident and clear to see and witness... And yes, I guess we paid our price for these wonderful experiences to be possible in our recovery today, by experiencing agony and pain, for years while in our active addiction...
