Impact of God’s Work

This week we continue to hear from some of our AA participants of their appreciation and how God has worked in their lives. At the end of the letter, Hebrews 10:25 is quoted. I want to highlight that what we call Hebrews was originally called a letter, and now most scholars desire to describe it as a sermon since its flow is much more of that style. And the bulk of Hebrews is meant to encourage the audience to persevere in the midst of trials. The gatherings of AA are designed for communities in which the participants can support one another in their trials of alcoholism. This week we have a short letter from M.

St James Lutheran Church,

I just wanted to thank you and your staff for your grace and support in allowing us (Alcoholic Anonymous) to meet in your church… and by doing that providing a way out of the chaos of addiction.

I hope you know that you are saving lives daily by giving so freely to us.

I feel like you are doing God’s work…  following in Jesus’ footsteps… I believe He came to save the lost and the lonely hurting people in this world and addiction is one of the most ravenous predators of so many of God’s children.

Thank you again,

M.

Hebrews 10:25 “And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another – and all the more as you see the day approaching.”
