Feb. 24, 2018 - Readings in Recovery: Today's Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

Saturday, Feb. 24, 2018
Today’s thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:

Not only then has each man his individual relation to God, but each man has his peculiar relation to God.
 — George MacDonald

Each of us sees and experiences God in a way somehow unique to us. No two people see things exactly alike. That’s why our program has no dogma. Each of us is encouraged to follow a spiritual path that seems to have been created for us. And we need not worry if we’re on the right one, because every path leads to God. Would God let us lose our way? Of course not. We will know if a course correction is needed, and God will lead us to it.

Each of us understands God in a way no one else does. There’s a place in God’s love for each of us. And out of that place we can bring light to other people, just as our own special people have brought their light to us.

I will cultivate my unique vision of God so that I may bring light to someone else.
