BECAUSE...

I follow God and try my best to serve Him because, at my lowest moment, I truly felt His presence when I reached out in prayer.  Too many years in drunken misery were spent trying this, that and everything in between.  When it became clear that time was running out I asked God to save me from the bottle and myself.  That was the last day I spent drunk and defeated.  God got my attention that day and everyday since then.
