We have to find a life in the world of grace and spirit,
and this is certainly a new dimension for most of us.
Surprisingly, our quest for this realm of being
is not too difficult.
Our conscious entry into it usually begins as soon
as we have deeply confessed our personal powerlessness
to go on alone, and have made our appeal
to whatever God we think there is -- or may be.
The gift of faith and the consciousness of a higher power
is the outcome.
As faith grows, so does inner security.
The vast underlying fear of nothingness
commences to subside.
Therefore we of AA find that our basic antidote for fear
is a spiritual awakening.
- Bill W., January 1962.
Turn fear into faith.
