Surrender

Surrender means saying, "Okay, God. I'll do whatever
You want." Faith in the God of our recovery means we
trust that, eventually, we'll like doing that.

Today, I will surrender to my Higher Power. I'll trust that
God's plan for me will be good, even if it is different than
I hoped for or expected.

Author: Melody Beattie
The thing I need to remember is that the program applies to ALL areas of my life. I need to surrender and put all of my life in my God's Hands, not just myself or my alcoholic/addict.

I need to surrender and not me defiant and fight against everyone and everything. I need to stop looking at others, and turn inward and connect with my God. I denied being and alcoholic, but I knew I couldn't go back to where I came from so I went along for the ride. They say to bring the body and the mind will follow. It worked for me.
