"Came to believe": The three most beautiful words in our language. ~Anonymous "Came to believe" has become a magical phrase for many of us. It is indeed beautiful. What did we come to believe? That a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. And it has happened in so many lives that it is a tenet of our program. The lost have come home; we've been restored. As we enjoy the fruits of recovery, though, we sometimes fail to realize that insanity isn't far away; it's just around the corner. And when we experience that insanity, it isn't that God has moved, but that our faith has wandered and shaken hands with the craziness of self-sufficiency. Coming to believe isn't usually a sudden happening, but a gradual change. And with daily renewal, it makes our life work. "Came to believe": those three beautiful words remind me today that I didn't get here alone. Today's reading is from the book In God's Care: Daily Meditations on Spirituality in Recovery*
