Today's Thought - November
November 1
We can know the difference between God’s will and our will. The Third Step suggests that we turn our will over to God. That’s a stumbling block for many of us. We don’t know how to do it, and it’s not easy for our friends in the program to explain the process. With patience, though, we come to realize it’s more a feeling than anything else. Pushing our will on someone else results in conflict and tension. We can learn to recognize negative feelings as signs that we’re not doing God’s will. Becoming willing to pause long enough to ask ourselves what God would want us to do in a specific situation, and then doing it, assures us that God’s will, not our will, is in charge. We’ll then feel peace. Recovery is showing us the difference between peace and tension, God’s will and our will. Willingness to try a better way to live with others guarantees that we’ll recognize God’s will every moment, if that’s our desire. I want to feel peaceful today. Asking for knowledge of God’s will and then following it will make me peaceful.
