Acceptance

When we have given our lives back to our Higher Power, we gradually learn to accept what happens to us as part of His plan. Most of us made a mess of trying to run our own lives. We are amazed at how much better things go when we acknowledge that the Power greater than ourselves is in control.

This quote from today's Overeaters Anonymous today, reminds me that it doesn't matter what Fellowship I choose to belong to, or not belong to, I still need my God, He is the solution.

The program is adaptable to all forms of dis-ease, and what we choose to pick up to make it feel all better, going without instead of within.

Just for today, I choose not to use. Just for today, I choose to go to my Higher Power and ask Him to get me through this day, without abusing myself and/or others.

I was in so many abusive relationships, because I didn`t know that I had the right to be me, set boundaries, and freedom of choice. I didn`t know I could say `No`and stand up for my beliefs, right or wrong.

Acceptance is the key to all of my problems in today. If I can`t find it within me, I need to pray, and ask for the willingness to be accepting.
