In God's Hands
When we look back, we realize that the things which came
to us when we put ourselves in God’s hands were better
than anything we could have planned. Follow the dictates
of a Higher Power and you will presently live in a new and
wonderful world, no matter what your present circumstances!
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (Working With Others) p. 100

Reliance on God enables me to match calamity with serenity.

Good Morning, All. I am Lou, an alcoholic. The serenity prayer starts off with asking God to grant me peace of mind. I have serenity most of the time when I accept things exactly as they are. As was stated earlier, I don't have to like it. We are living in crazy times and a lot of what goes on in the world is not easy to accept. I go directly back to God. I know He has a plan for each and every one of us. I have accepted He is in charge. His plan for my life has turned out to be far better than my plan. I don't run on self will any more. I accept things as they are and when I see a problem with Lou I work on changing that problem. Only with God's help am I able to do this.
