December 28

My Higher Power takes many forms. One of the most comforting is the presence of the Great Mother, the magnificent Goddess who has a personal interest in guiding my life.

~Rita Casey

One of the first things we learn in this recovery program is that we have a Higher Power. Next we learn that we can define our Higher Power according to our own needs. As we change and get more comfortable in our recovery, our definition of a Higher Power, or God, may change too. However, wisdom is our reward for believing, and any gender or form of Higher Power will do.

Having a Higher Power's loving guidance is perhaps the most blessed of all the rewards of this program. Never do we need to feel alone. Decisions will be easier to make when we remember to ask our Higher Power for guidance.

Knowing that we have a loving Higher Power who truly cares about our safety and well-being makes every moment of our lives more peaceful and secure. We will be on the right path if we look for the guidance that we’ve been promised.

I may not understand why I have received God's grace, but my sobriety is a sure sign that I have. I will let my Higher Power guide me all day long.

Today's reading is from the book A Woman's Spirit: More meditations for Women*
