Gods View on Vocation
Iām just getting started on my sober journeyā¦i am confident Iāve accepted and am addressing step 1ā¦step 2 and 3 look tough as Ive never been a religious personā¦any advice? I keep thinking that my higher power is AA itselfā¦the positive energy I receive each meetingā¦why do I feel like thatās a short cut? If i could run with that mentality, I think Iād feel much better offā¦
If I were you I would keep working the steps and let the process happen naturally. I wouldnāt force anything, but Iād be actively seeking. A relationship with God or your higher power is something you will develop. Just like any relationship you get out of it what you put into it. If it feels right and is helping you then keep doing what youāre doing. My relationship with God just clicked, I knew all along he was there. He was just waiting for me to invite Him into my life. Now that I have, my life is exponentially better in every aspect. Pray and meditate about it. Heās always there, just waiting for you . Does that help at all?
Yeah, thank u for the response and adviceā¦its such a confusing and somewhat frustrating part of this! (At least for me)
Maybe ur right, and itās just something that I canāt force and have to let develop naturally. Itās hard though, because each meeting I go to, and each big book chapter I read, constantly states that success is only probable if I accept my higher powerā¦so itās like this looming decision is always there!
Thanks again, I look forward to learning more from u, the content youāve provided is great!
