Dear God/ess, Tom gave me Doreen Virtue’s Archangel Oracle Cards for my Birthday last week.  I’ve always wanted these cards but never got around to getting them. Tom must have read my mind.

The card for today’s prayer reading is: Remember Who You Are. Archangel Michael says: “You are a powerful, loving and creative child of God. You are very loved.”

Alcoholic’s Anonymous always stresses to the sober (and non-sober) alcoholic that we are all God’s kids.

One of the thing I loved about the meetings is that you could be sitting beside a Doctor or Lawyer on one side of you, and a hardened criminal, a murderer even, on the other side. We were all on a level playing field. No class. No elitism. No one-up-man-ship. Just Recovering Alcoholics, trudging the road of happy destiny, said Bill W., intent on a spiritual sobriety that included all who joined us there in the rooms (of AA).

And the longer we all went without a drink, the happier we were. Yes, life still hands us challenges. Yes, sometimes these challenges make it difficult not to pick up a drink. Or not. The beauty is, everything is funny the longer you succeed in replacing Spirits with Spirit. The Comedy and Tragedy of life take on a meaningful significance.

Alcoholics Anonymous teaches us to revel in the love of our Higher Power and Spirit Guides and all of the angels and unseen energies that really do take care of us.

A woman I know has been struggling with her sister who is drinking herself to death. I said to her, “Don’t worry, God takes care of babies and drunks.” But we all know people who die of alcoholism, so I said those words carefully.

So this prayer is for my friend’s sister and for all the people who concern us because of their alcoholism or drug addiction.

They need to know that they are loved and they deserve all the love in the hearts of those who help them.

My friend’s sister is one of God’s kids. She needs to feel this from all of us reading this prayer today.

Om, Peace, Amen
