45th Annual Roundup in Maine, Sugarloaf - Spiritual Speaker - Lisa M

I am grateful for my past experience and ability to be able to speak off the cuff straight from the heart. I'm grateful for my sponsor Luke who one time ripped up my cue cards right before my talk and said "This isn't a speech! We speak from the heart. Why do you need notes? Don't you know your own story?" 

I'm grateful people find something to resonate with and keep asking me to travel to their locations to do what I believe God wants us all to day, carry the message of Hope by sharing our stories of recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous.

 

I'm grateful that on this invitation I got to speak in front of a 1000 fellow AA'ers and amongst them was my sponsor, a Sponsee, a grand Sponsee and a dear friend all who travelled separately to join me in Maine so that we could meet in person for the very first time!!!

 

I  was caught off when the chair person told me just before I began, that I'd have to cut my talk by 15 minutes. So it took me a while to get my brain on track...but eventually God stepped in and lead me to the finish.

 

I hope you find some Hope in there.
