Inspiration, Intuitive Thought, Decision
In thinking about our day we may face indecision. We may not
be able to determine which course to take. Here we ask God
for inspiration, an intuitive thought or a decision. We relax and
take it easy. We don’t struggle. We are often surprised how the
right answers come after we have tried this for a while.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (Into Action) p. 86
Thought to Ponder
Praying is asking God for help,
meditating is listening for God's answer.

Hey group. Laverne here. Alcoholic. To me the 11th step is an essential step. I pray a lot. Life, my life is full of surprises. I pray to my God for guidance. As for meditation. I don’t sit with my legs crossed and meditate. I take a quiet time. Many times during the day to listen to what God has to say to me. This has worked for me for years. Thanks for letting me share.
