Quote of the Week

"Instead of telling God how big your fears are, 
start telling your fears how big your God is."

Before recovery, we were driven by a hundred forms of self-centered fear.  During steps 6 and 7, we began to release some of these character defects, but some habits are hard to break.  Like feeding into our fears.

But when we can pause and work our program of recovery, we remember that we are not alone.  In fact, our greatest asset in our new life is our connection with and relationship to our Higher Power.  We know from repeated experience that God has, can and continues to work miracles in our lives and in the lives of those we meet in the rooms.

Rather than giving power to my fears today, I now give my fears to God.  My solution is that when I'm telling my fears how big my God is, I'm thinking about God -- not my fears.  And that is when the miracle takes place.
