For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Ephesians 2:10
We are not here to sit around, and faith alone is never enough. God has plans for us, plans for us to prosper and be happy, but also plans for us to do good works. When we fail to live up to this plan, we fail ourselves as we fail Christ.
Thankfully, God does not ask of us other than to live as good Christians, so that we may be happy and at peace as we spread the word of God and act with love to all we meet. It's a pretty good deal!
Good works are an essential element of the Christian 12 steps, as they are of the Christian life. So get out and praise God! Live for Him, with Him, and for always, and find peace from addiction.
