With prayer and good
intentions, we make our lives sacred and so come to balance.
Don Jose
Huichol Sierra Madre
As we go through the day we pause, when
agitated or doubtful, and ask for the right thought or action. We constantly remind
ourselves we are no longer running the show, humbly saying to ourselves many
times each day "Thy will be done." We are then in much less danger of
excitement, fear, anger, worry, self-pity, or foolish decisions. We become much
more efficient. We do not tire so easily, for we are not burning up energy
foolishly as we did when we were trying to arrange life to suit ourselves.
It
works—It really does!
We
alcoholics are undisciplined. So we let God discipline us in the simple way we
have just outlined. But this is not all. There is action and more action.
"Faith without works is dead.”
