Gamblers don't have to drift from crisis to crisis

December 11 - Before I came to the GA Program - in face, before I knew of the Program's existence - I drifted from crisis to crisis.  Occasionally, I tried to use my will to chart a new course; however, like a rudderless ship, I inevitably foundered once again on the rocks of my own despair.  Today, in contrast, I receive guidance from my Higher Power.  Sometimes, the only answer is a sense of peace or an assurance that all is well.

Even though there may be a time of waiting before I see results, or before any direct guidance comes, will I try to remain confident that things are working out in ways that will be for the greatest good of everyone concerned?

Today I Pray - May I not expect instant, verbal communication with my Higher Power, like directions on a stamped, self-addressed postcard.  May I have patience, and listen, and sense that God is present.  May I accept my new feeling of radiant warmth and serenity as God's way of assuming me that I am, finally, making some good choices.

Today I Will Remember - Patience: God's message will come.
