I remember being in "control" of my life.
When I acted on my will, I was miserable. I couldn't bare reality, so I altered it. I didn't want to live, so I would hope every time I used would be the last thing I did.
I don't know how to explain the miracle that snapped me out of it but once I found recovery reality became barable. Life as I knew it ended and a new way of living commenced.
Today I surrender my will to a power greater than myself without second guessing it because when I'm in "control", I'm absolutely miserable.
Surrendering self-will
“Our fears are lessened and faith begins to grow as we learn the true meaning of surrender. We are no longer fighting fear, anger, guilt, self-pity, or depression.”
Basic Text, p. 27
Just for today: I will surrender self-will. I will seek knowledge of God’s will for me and the power to carry it out. I will leave the results in my Higher Power’s hands.
