Our faith in God is a kind of insurance against the terrible things that might happen to us if we ever drink again. By putting our drink problem in the hands of God, we've taken out a sort of insurance policy which insures us against the ravages of drink, as our homes and cars are insured against destruction by fire or accident. And we must pay our insurance premium daily.
Every time we go to a meeting, every time we say the Lord's prayer, every time we get down on our knees, first thing in the morning, we've paying a premium on our insurance against drinking. And every time we help another alcoholic, we are making a large payment on our drink insurance.
We've making sure that our policy doesn't lapse. So if we take out an insurance policy by putting our drink problem in God's hands and if we keep paying our premiums regularly by going to meetings, by prayer, and by helping others, we've building up an endowment in serenity, peace, and happiness that will keep us on the Road of Happy Destiny.
