23 Novemba

When soldiers surrender in battle, the first thing they do is stop fighting. Then they let go of whatever they are holding in their hands.

They hold their hands up and wait for further instructions and direction. In Narcotics Anonymous we are told, "Let Go and Let God.

Both are an act of Surrender. The First Step was a forced Surrender, we were beaten into submission by the disease. We then Surrender to the Spiritual Principles of N.A., In our Second Step. The Third Step asks us to make a Decision, to let the God Of Our Understanding take Care of us.

What we have to do is let go of whatever we are holding on to, so we are able to receive what the God Of Our Understanding is trying to hand us. Lack of Trust and fear of the unknown is what kept us trapped in the past, and nervous about the future. Today we shouldn't forget to Trust the Power that got us Clean in the First Step. We should Trust that Power that relieved our obsession to use and kept us Clean in the Second Step.

We must remember that this same Power is still here with us in our Third Step. This Power we can call God, will continue to Help and Guide us on our Spiritual Journey. Today we will Practice Faith by letting go of what is troubling us today.

We will learn from our past and present mistakes. We will Trust that whatever is troubling us, "In This Moment", will be our greatest teacher. We can also let go of what's affecting our Recovery in a negative way. In This Moment: We will Practice "Letting Go and Letting God", Just For Today,

In This Moment.
