Daily Reprieve

From Today’s Daily Reflections (late);

During this process of learning more about humility, the most profound result of all was the change in our attitude toward God.   (Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, page 75)

Today my prayers consist mostly of saying thank you to my Higher Power for my sobriety and for the wonder of God’s abundance, but I need to ask also for help and the power to carry out His will for me. I no longer need God each minute to rescue me from the situations I get myself into by not doing His will.  Now my gratitude seems to be directly linked to humility. As long as I have the humility to be grateful for what I have, God continues to provide for me.

I am grateful to Gomu (God of my understanding) for the freedom from alcoholic domination.  I am grateful that I have a restored and more real relationship with my God.  I am grateful that I have a safe place to recover and grow.  I am so very grateful.
