April 4, 2022 - Readings in Recovery: Today's Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

 

Monday, April 4, 2022

Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:

Reflection for the Day

Change is the characteristic of all growth. From drinking to sobriety, from dishonesty to honesty, from conflict to serenity, from childish dependence to adult responsibility — all this and infinitely more represent change for the better. Only a Higher Power is unchanging; only a force greater than me can hold all the truth there is.

Do I accept the belief that lack of power was my dilemma? Have I found a power by which I can live — a Power greater than myself?

Today I Pray

I pray that the program will be, for me, an outline for change — for changing me. These days of transition from active addiction to sobriety, from powerlessness to power through a Higher Power, may be rocky, as change can be. May my restlessness be stilled by the unchanging nature of my Higher Power, in which I place my trust. Only my Higher Power is whole and perfect and predictable.

Today I Will Remember

I can count on my Higher Power.

Hazelden Foundation
