November 29, 1981
I was sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Even though I was working 10-12 hours a day and only
sleeping 4 hours a night, I still had to drink myself to sleep. That night was going to be my last. In desperation I prayed. God if You are real, prove Yourself to me. He did. My room lit up and I started laughing and crying at the same time. For hours. It was maybe 5am before I fell asleep. At 6am my phone rang. My sister had been killed by a drunk driver 12 hours ago. I was the only one who didn't know. It would have sent me over the edge had I known. I went to my refrigerator which was full of Dark Lowenbrau and nothing else. I took a drink and spit it out all over the refrigerator. Today marks 44 years sober by God's grace. And my sister, just one week prior had told me that her one wish in this world was to have a room full of flowers all her own. I broke down and wept at the funeral home when I saw her room filled with an incredible amount of flowers. The simplest prayers and the purest hearts desires. God hears and He loves us in spite of what we think of ourselves. Whatever your relationship is or isn't ask God to reveal Himself to you right where you are. And get ready because He loves it when we do.
