You Say & the Higher Power Says

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad. Whether its alcoholism, addiction, depression, gambling, co-dependency or relationships we shouldn’t lose heart. The Higher Power is at work in our lives, helping us in recovery even in the midst of pain and suffering.

Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground it just may be a smoke signal that summons the goodwill of The Higher Power.

For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves, The Higher Power has a positive answer for it.
