and wanted God. There had been a humble willingness to have Him with me—and He came."

"I know that my victory is none of my human doing. I know that I must keep myself worthy of Divine help. And the
glorious thing is this: I am free, I am happy, and perhaps I am going to have the blessed opportunity of "passing it on."
I say in all reverence-Amen."

"It was only a matter of being willing to believe in a Power greater than myself. Nothing more was required of me to make my beginning. I saw that growth could
start from that point. Upon a foundation of complete willingness I might build what I saw in my friend. Would I have it? Of course I would!"

"Gradually I found at parties the service was a little slow; the rest of the crowd being pretty happy and carefree after the
second round. My reaction was inclined to be just the opposite. Something had to be done about that so I'd just help
myself to a fast one, sometimes openly, but as time went on and my need became more acute, I often did it on the quiet."

"It hadn’t even come to mind.
Someone had pushed a drink my way, and I had taken it. Was I crazy? I began to wonder, for such an appalling lack of perspective seemed near being just that."

"There must be something to it," I said to myself. "Why would these busy men take the time to come to see me? They
understand my problem. Like me, they've tried this remedy and that remedy but never found one that worked. But
whatever it is they are using now, it seems to keep them sober."

"The second step came when I first consciously wished to believe. As a result of this experience I am convinced that to seek is to find, to ask is to be given. The day never passes that I do not silently cry out in thankfulness., not merely for my release from alcohol, but even
more for a change that has given life new meaning, dignity, and beauty."

"She had heard of the work of a non-drinking doctor who was busily engaged in passing on the benefits he had received from another who had found the answer to his difficulties with liquor. As a result of this my wife saw the doctor. Then I talked with him, spent a few days in a local hospital and haven't had a drink since."

"But the actual or potential alcoholic, with
hardly any exception, will be ABSOLUTELY UNABLE TO STOP
DRINKING ON THE BASIS OF SELF-KNOWLEDGE. This is a point
we wish to emphasize and re-emphasize, to smash home upon our alcoholic readers as it has been revealed to us out of bitter experience."

"I have been reunited with my wife, making good in business, and paying off debts as I am able. I wish I could find
words to tell my story more graphically. My former friends and employers are amazed and see in me a living proof that the remedy I have used really works. I have been fortunate to be surrounded with friends ever ready to help, but I firmly believe any man can get the same result if he will sincerely work at it God's way."

"I braced up, got sober, and made a good connection with a steamship agency, a concern promoting European travel and
study at most all important universities in Europe. Those were the bath-tub gin days and for drinking in and about my
office, I held out in this position for only a year."
