There I humbly offered myself to God, as I then understood Him (God), to do with me as He would, I placed myself unreservedly under His care and direction. I admitted for the first time that of myself I was nothing; that without Him I was Lost. I ruthlessly faced my sins and became willing to have my new-found Friend take them away, root and branch. I have not had a drink since.
