August 31

Every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain.

~From Isaiah 40:4

Recovery can be compared to climbing a hill. And as with all skills, the more we practice the better we become. There comes a time in the course of recovery when we view a hill that once would have caused us to quake in our boots or to quit altogether. But using the skills achieved by working an intelligent, consistent program, we can simply take it in stride.

When we came into the program, we were asked if we were willing to go to any lengths to win our freedom from bondage. As we grew and developed a positive response, all sorts of things became possible that at one time were not. We are often told in the program that “the best way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time.” We don’t have to do it all at once. All recovery is made inch by inch.

Now we can look at yonder hill and accept it as just another obstacle to be conquered—and not a very big obstacle at that.

I am amazed and encouraged by the gains I’ve already made. Today’s challenges do not intimidate me.

Today's reading is from the book Days of Healing, Days of Joy: Daily Meditations for Adult Children*
