Those of us who live in one day at a time recovery eventually are touched by humility. Sooner or later we realize we don’t have all the answers as to how to find and live in recovery. Some people living with concurrent disorders just sort of stop. That’s it. They just stop and recover. We can accept this and be happy for these people. Nonetheless humility also lets us know we can live in recovery one day at a time. It lets us know we can reach out and we don’t have to do it alone. We are also humble enough that we can ask a God of our own understanding if this God will help us when we feel like we really need it, or even when we least expect it. We have enough humility to remember when we reached out, lost, or kind of lost, and said “God help me”. And some of us have enough humility to say that we don’t comprehend the what, how, or why. All we know is that we believe in something. And we know this is okay. Touched by humility, we reach out and live our lives one day at a time.
