Most people living in one day at a time recovery will encounter the reality of chaos which attacks their spirits interfering with their peace of mind, or what we could call our one day at a time wellness. We all have suffered, or will suffer, in such times. Such chaos is a reminder of when we had bottomed, or were bottoming out, and in desperations we thought, or even cried out, “God help me”. At that time such words might have been as foreign to us as is the language of a lost civilization. Now while in recovery, either new or even well seasoned, the chaos that sometimes appears in our lives brings us to these words again. “God help me”. The repetition of such words can bring us to a place with a new peace. Prayer does work. We don’t have to know how or why. We call it the reality of grace. Peace.
