I met Jesus

September 23, 2019April 4, 2022 by Deb Smith Arnold

This I can only explain as an act of Grace from my God to me, because I certainly didn’t deserve it and I did nothing to receive or even expect it. He gave it to me when I most needed it when I most needed Him.

If you SIN, you’re Going to Hell!

September 18, 2019April 4, 2022 by Deb Smith Arnold

What I learned about Sin and Hell prevented me from having a Loving and Trusting relationship with God. How could I ever trust a God that condemned his favorite Angel to Hell, surely I would be doomed as well and I knew what was “down there.”

Me a Miracle

August 20, 2019April 4, 2022 by Deb Smith Arnold

I had a therapist that suggested that being sober was equivalent to someone telling me to be Russian today. It was as foreign to me as being a different nationality. Every day was like walking on Shattered Glass, I felt like the foundation of my existence, so tentative, could cave at any moment.

Me the Alcoholic

August 13, 2019April 4, 2022 by Deb Smith Arnold

If you love me and are trying to help me, you should get help for yourself because you are the LAST person in the world that will be able to help me, EVER. Try to get that before you help kill both of us.

The Other Side of Me

August 9, 2019April 4, 2022 by Deb Smith Arnold

She reminds me of the other side of me. She is the drunk for my sober, the despair for my joy, the dark side of my light that shines so bright, and she is the evil side of my grace.
