When the Eleventh Step says
"Sought through prayer and meditation,"
it means to me that what I need to develop is a daily practice.
It is not something for me to do
on a hit-or-miss basis . . .
It is for good weather and bad weather
and just your average cloudy day. . .
Clarity, focus, and awareness have entered my life
in a way and to a degree
that would not have been possible without it.
The strongest, most consistent message
I receive from the Higher Power
is love yourself, respect yourself.
Love is the absolutely crucial, indispensable
ingredient in recovery.

Thought to Ponder....

Prayer asks the question.
Meditation listens for the answer.
