Many of us living in one day at a time recovery start our mornings asking for a bit of help. We turn to God, the spirit, the creator, the energy, or the universe in hopes that we will be healthy. We ask this power to help us to be abstinent and responsible. In doing so, if the day turns out to be a good day, or a bad day, more than likely we will be alright. We know this too shall pass. Some of us, as tradition has taught us, kneel down before asking for help. Some of us ask for help while we are showering. Some of us sit on the side of our bed as we request help. We have learned not to force our beliefs on others. Our reality is it helps us to feel connected to something bigger than ourselves. It gives us faith. Peace.
