First Things First

I am so very, very grateful for SA. This program has changed my life for the better like no other psychology, therapy, or self-help ideas ever could. Not that there is necessarily anything wrong with these things, they just don’t work like SA does.

Last weekend I was privileged and honored to be a moderator at the Rochester SA group’s “Day of Inventory.” It was such a powerful, moving weekend. I was able to renew many friendships and meet newer members of Rochester SA. I also believe the “Day of Inventory” will strengthen and unify SA. The Rochester fellowship has such a wonderful and committed group.

The most important point I learned, however, was the need, for my sobriety and recovery, to put SA Number One in my life! That’s right. Number One. Ahead of my job, career, social life, etc. I can enjoy these things as well, and a balanced, well-rounded life is good, but I must “be willing to go to any lengths” to get and stay sexually sober. First things First. That means putting my sobriety and recovery and service to SA as my life’s top priority. God will take care of the rest.

I have been sexually sober for three and a half years now, one day at a time, and yet this weekend at Rochester was so powerful for me because it helped me straighten out my priorities. When I put the program and service to SA as the Number One priority in my life, sobriety and recovery are sure to follow.
