“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible.”
~St. Thomas Aquinas
The A.A. program is one of faith because we find that we must have faith in a Power greater than ourselves if we are going to get sober. We're helpless before alcohol, but when we turn our drink problem over to God and have faith that He can give us all the strength we need, then we have the drink problem licked. Faith in that Divine Principle in the universe, which we call God is the essential part of the A.A. program. Is faith still strong in me?
Whatever your faith may be, a faith in God, in people - whatever; it will be the Higher Power that will be there for you whenever you need it. I could not have gotten sober alone and I wouldn't want to have.
