Divine Destiny

Soon we came to realize that sobriety was not our end goal. As it turned out, sobriety was simply a way of life which we had grown to prefer, since clarity of mind was beneficial in our quest for true purpose.

We were certain that our Creator, possessing infinite intelligence, designed each of us in a unique manner which best equipped us for the tasks we would be asked to accomplish. We derived deep satisfaction from identifying these gifts and talents which had been placed within us. We found emotional, spiritual, and intellectual fulfillment in discovering how our own unique traits intersected with others’ to light up the darkness and advance the Kingdom.

We believed we were no longer damaged, dysfunctional, disease-ridden plagues on society. We sensed that our bodies, souls, and spirits were coming into harmony with our divine destiny. As light seeped in where the darkness had been, we saw things we’d never seen before. We understood spiritual concepts which had seemed confusing in the past.
