End of alcoholism quiz . . . Now for a touch of humor. You know that corny poem, Footprints in the Sand?
Here's another version:
Buttprints in the Sand
One night I had a wondrous dream.
A set of prints in the sand was seen,
The footprints of my precious Lord.
Yet mine were not along the shore.
But then a stranger's print appeared.
I asked the Lord, "What have we here?
This print is large and round and neat,
But, Lord, it's just too large for feet."
"My child," He said in somber tone,
"For miles I carried you alone.
I challenged you to seek My face,
Take up your cross and walk in grace."
"You disobeyed, you would not grow.
You would not stand against the flow.
Your neck was stiff, your ears were shut,
So there I dropped you on your butt."
"Because in life there comes a time,
When one must reach and one must climb,
When one must rise and one must stand,
Or leave one's buttprints in the sand."
Dropped on your Butt?!
Do you sometimes feel like you've been dropped? Ker-plunk, right in the sand!
Maybe this whole alcoholism thing happened for a reason. Maybe sitting on your butt in the sand is the best possible place for you to be, because now you can begin your life again.
God may be asking, "CAN WE START NOW? Are you through??"
If you feel like you just can't get up, guess what? You can. You really can have a new life in recovery from alcoholism. If I, a hopeless, helpless drunk, can do it, so can you!
