the theme for today, my sponsor and i have decided is: stay in today! just a rephrasing of what we always say, but i like it nonetheless :) "for today" and "voices..." are especially good today. here are a couple lines that stood out to me:
FT: "the 12 step program is the same for me as it is for them. it shows us how to live if we are willing to follow its instructions"
"fears are not facts. i can take the steps necessary to change my life in spite of my fears"
VOR: "i had to stop eating compulsively." through putting down the food and picking up the steps, the desire to overeat compulsively had been lifted"
god, you are god and i am not. recently i have not been willing to follow instruction or participate in my life. i do not know why that is the case. although i know that you are powerful and i am not. one thing that i do have power over is my will. today i choose to give you my will. i guess that means i am moving to the passenger's seat, letting you take control and resisting the urge to be a backseat driver. you are god; i am not... so you must know what you are doing. thank you in advance for an abstinent day.
