Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase. — Martin Luther King Jr.
During our addiction, we were on a path leading to death — death of our spirit, mind, and body. On that path, we tried not to think about where it would lead. We didn’t want to get there. We just followed the path toward death, with one drink, pill, snort, or toke at a time.
Now we’ve chosen a new path for our lives. Making that choice was hard. We knew only the old path. We were afraid to change; it took faith. But we did it!
We are excited to follow our new path, our new staircase. We know it leads to good things. We can follow the map — the Twelve Steps — and enjoy the trip. It will last as long as we live, and the map will guide us.
Prayer for the Day
Higher Power, thanks for helping me choose the path of life.
Action for the Day
Today I’ll study the map for my life by reading the Twelve Steps.
