March 27, 2023 - Readings in Recovery: Step by Step

 

Step by Step
Monday, March 27, 2023

Today, if I am afraid, anxious, worried or uncertain about anything, I can draw strength from the mercy and blessing of my Higher Power that guided me through the darkness of active alcoholism to face the challenges before me now. If I believe that drinking was the darkest chapter of my life but that I survived with the mercy of a Higher Power, I can also believe that the same mercy can lead me through a lesser turmoil. Step 2 of coming to believe in a Higher Power is refuge from any storm I am weathering now, and the Third Step of yielding to a greater Power calms any fears or doubts with faith. Today, I can draw strength and hope from the yesterday when I had my last drink to believe that, with faith and strength in the Power that got me through those days, I can get through anything less – with unconditional faith and by seeking His will over mine. And our common journey continues. Step by step. – Chris M., 2023
