I LOVE THIS ONE

I want my higher power to live in my heart full time, but he'll only take a 24 hour lease.

It's amazing how good I feel when I get connected to my Higher Power.  I do this when I pray and meditate in the mornings.or when I speak to or help someone in the program.  Or when I attend meetings.

I love the peace I feel, the sense of belonging I have and the feelings of being comfortable in my own skin.

I'ts also amazig how I can wake up the next day and feel so disconnected, I've often asked my sponser why I can't stay connected, and she/he tells me it's the same reason I can't stay full after I've eaten a meal, when I ask her/him to explain she says.

Because we are spriitual beings, we have a hunger to connect with our source. Once connected, we are filled with peace and serenity that is the nourishment of this union.  As we go about our day expending energy - the biggest energy drain is caused by thinking about ourselves-

We quickly become depleted and hungry.  Thats why we need to continually take actions to restore our connection and move GOD back into our Hearts.

"Even though my HIGHER POWER will only take a 24 hour lease, I can take Actions to renew it daily".

Your very welcome

I had this sent to me via email and as I read it, it made a whole lot of sense as well as made me feel closer to my higher power.

I have formed a strong bond with my higher power the past few months. It has helped me to believe in myself and stay sober. I find prayer soothing and comforting.
