The Power of Program

No one of us met our experiences very successfully before discovering this program. In most cases we lacked the structure that comes with the Steps. Direction was missing from our lives. ~ Casey, Karen. Each Day a New Beginning: Daily Meditations for Women (Kindle Locations 2938-2939). Hazelden Publishing.
About FACE! That's what happens
with successful Recovery.
You pivot to face the opposite direction
turning clockwise a hundred eighty degrees.
We failed to find the willpower
the rest of the world, the willpower
our mothers, our doctors, the whole world
insisted we find. We dumped the worthless
treasure hunt for mastery, gave up...
literally, surrendering to a God
we had thought too busy
to be concerned with
what we put in our bodies.
We took off in a new direction
surrounded by people like us...
having discovered at last
there really were more of us!
We discovered the dorection
and the path we had sought for years!
Thank God for Recovery,
and thank Recovery for leading us to God!
