Good morning Ben it is amazing when we look back and we see where we could not even get one day clean and sober. Now here we are but multiple days underneath our belts. We are all miracles.
Good morning Troy. Just heard this from a pastor on the radio… God made sin so we can learn from His mercy.

I am never ever ever ever going to count days again because it undermines my confidence in my program to start stressing about what’s in the past and trying to keep track of my successes in such detail.
Early in my program, I was counting days and it took me a few months to realize that this was a huge source of unnecessary anxiety for me . I did not feel rewarded from knowing that I had one day more or one month more. On the contrary, I felt that more was at stake the more time passed if I slipped, and that was a source of stress for me.
I know my sobriety date and I can tell you I have approximately 9 1/2 years .
That’s all I need to know and the only reason I need to know it is to communicate to other people. What’s important to me is today and what I do today to uphold my program and keep me moving forward through today.
By the grace of God, day by day, this works for my program .
I’ve noticed other people prefer to count the days and if that works for them I am overjoyed that they have found something to help them in the recovery .
To each their own …
