The made up higher powers of AA? reminds me of the Mormons. Make up your own God and worship it? Not me!

I've spent about 40 days in AA and my time in AA is short. I cant subscribe to the made up non-sense of making up any kind of higher source of power. Essentially making up your own God? I have been shamed by my John 14:6 stance and I have been told no one wants to hear about it. And Im tired of the Christian bashing in AA too.

I've heard intelligent attorneys say what if I do pray to Zeus as my higher power? Lol And I've heard countless people say they pray to mother earth. I spent 45 minutes listening to an LBGT yesterday say they make up new Gods all of the time.

I cant do it anymore. I have a christian sponsor. I will continue to talk with him and move over to Celebrate Recovery on Thursday night.

I have been much stronger. Please pray for a job. That's next in my future. Thank you 🙂 And God Bless all of you for your prayers.

Quit AA and lean on Jesus Christ and work with your christian mentor. You don't need to hear negitive lies put out by the father of lies. I prayed according to your rewuest and added some of my own prayers for you. Hang in there, we are almost home. Prayer

It means the world to me Yohanan. In fact when someone tells me they are praying for me it makes me want to cry. Thank you

@boulder95 I've been praying for you every day since you asked for 90 days of prayer, as I am sure others here have too. We want to see you overcome these obstacles in your life and to have a close walk with Jesus and live in His peace. The world promises all sorts of wonderful things but only delivers destruction. A walk with Jesus is the real life.
