We have ceased fighting anything or anyone–even alcohol. For by this time sanity has returned. We can now react sanely and normally, and we find that this has happened almost automatically. We see that this
new attitude toward liquor is really a gift of God.
That is the miracle of it. We are not fighting it, neither are we avoiding temptation. We have not even sworn off. Instead, the problem has
been removed. It does not exist for us. We are neither cocky nor afraid.
That is how we react–so long as we keep in fit spiritual condition.
