The Eleventh Step helps us, in the face of a problem, to be aware of God.
Gray Book, p. 58 (Step Eleven, Lines 10-11)
One of the first Fruits of the Eleventh Step is Emotional Balance. Seeking God's Will for us through Prayer and Meditation, is an act of Faith. What we are saying with our actions is that we cannot Recover by our own accord.
We need to Humbly seek Constant, Conscious Contact with the God Of Our Understanding. We first have to Practice being calm.
Calm is Trust in action. We clear the thoughts that have been causing us turmoil by breathing and remaining still. Next, we Trust the God Of Our Understanding will supply us with the Power to overcome our problems and the Strength to seek a Solution. Our Basic Text says, " that our spiritual condition is the basis for a successful recovery that offers unlimited growth.
This act of Faith restores our Hope and makes us really internalize that we're not alone. We see and feel God's presence and start to experience God Consciousness.
We intuitively know that all will be well no matter what happens. We are only Responsible for the action of the Solution, and we leave the results to our Higher Power. Our Gray Book states, "It is important we keep faith and renew it through daily prayer." We quickly recall again that if we're not the problem, there's no Solution.
We Surrender quietly and let the God of Our Understanding Care for us.
In This Moment: We will show Trust by remaining calm in the midst of the storm. We finally Believe in our Hearts and Spirits, that all will be well.
