The Giver of the Gift

It was only when I became aware of all the gifts I had received that I asked who the giver was. What a shocking realization: because the gifts were surely divine, then equally as surely, the giver must also have been divine. ~Voices of Recovery (Kindle Locations 926-928).
Have you ever been at a time of gift opening,
Christmas, a birthday, a shower, and tried to reconnect
after the fact the gift and the giver?
It can be just as confusing if the gifts
are exactly what you've wanted for years and years
but those years of experience convince you
it's nothing you've done, no act of yours
that has brought them. Rather the giver
can be no other than that Power Greater than You
you've been acting as if it existed.
And the gifts are proof positive this idea
those Twelve-Steppers proclaim
really exists...despite your best logic!
