Asking For Help Prayer
Quote:
In today, I believe a prayer is a thought. I try to be careful of the thoughts that I send out and remember that what goes around, comes around. God was there. I wasn't all there until I came into the program, worked the Steps and became whole. A lot is our mean and our intent, is it real or conditional.

Quite often I get into a comfort zone and find myself resenting anything that comes into my life to threaten it. I was told that if you come to a place of comfort and it feels too good, especially if it is too good to be true, it is time to change. Like having an old pair of shoes, not wanting to go out and buying a new pair because you know you will have to break them in and may have to go through some pain and discomfort in order to break them in. In the long run, it is for your good and you are happy with the result, but it is in the getting there that we dig in our heels.
I can become complacent, taking things for granted, even my Higher Power. I know He is there, I know He knows, but I also know, He wants me to go to Him, not Him come to me! God helps them who helps themselves and I can't just sit back and not do the footwork or make the effort to change. I need to bring the willingness and courage, even if I have to pray for Him to get it. I find that when I go to meetings it isn't so easy to slip into those old patterns, but because of my disability and not always able to be mobile, I need to make that conscious contact on a daily basis. I have my space, my place to talk to my God daily and it is out of bounds to others. Quote:
