my daily reflections…

havin recently relocated to another state, a place where i am totally out of my comfort zone and element, ive been able to find peace of mind. even as i want to let self-pity reign, and feel like all is lost, tellin myself how i may have made a mistake, puttin all faith in my HP, i find that the mysterious ways my HP provides me comfort are ways i could not have done myself. i understand that this mornins readin out of the daily reflection refer to other areas, it also helps me not sink into areas i have no responsibility in while in my recovery. i reckon when im feelin tossed within its a sign that i need to grow past my self-centeredness and accept that He will provide when i use the faith recovery has taught me. instead of livin with self-imposed sufferin, i get to learn lessons for livin, i get to discover untapped resources of courage and strength, experiencin how faith in Him provides the answers i seek when im patient. i get to see how i am the one who usually puts myself in the situations i face. then i get to learn how to use Him to learn how to overcome me. if i remember to remain calm, He will provide for me what i need most. as long as i keep serene at the center of my bein, wearin the world around me like a loose garment, puttin my life into the protection and care of His hands, shit will turn out the way to which they are posed to. i aint gotta be a victim of my alcoholism, of myself. i can take steps toward recovery and heal my self-esteem. i only fail if i consider myself a failure. i am what i create. God requires my cooperation to make miracles. when i get the rest needed, takin care of myself with prayer, meditation, and faith, movin forward through the events i used to crumble over, i get to live life with peace of mind and freedom. to live life, to love life, means that i realize i need God. regular prayer and meditation allow the mysterious miracles He provides to work their way in my life, expandin my recovery. 1 day @ a time...
