Have the Power to Change

May 7 - If I believe that it's hopeless to expect any improvement in my life, I'm doubting the power of God.  If I believe I have reason for despair, I'm confessing personal failure, for I do have the power to change myself; nothing can prevent it but my own unwillingness.  I can learn in the Gamblers Anonymous Program to avail myself of the immense, inexhaustible power of God - if I'm willing to be continually aware of God's nearness.

Do I still imagine that my satisfaction with life depends on what someone else will do?

Today I Pray - May I give over my life to the will of God, not to the whims and insensitivities of others.  When I counted solely on what other people did and thought and felt for my own happiness, I became nothing more than a cheap mirror reflecting others' lives.  May I remain close to God in all things.  I value myself because God values me.  May I be dependent only upon my Higher Power. 

Today I Will Remember - Stay close to God.
