Recovery has a need for a Higher Power

December 26 - None of us can really claim to understand our Higher Power to any extent.  But this I do know:  there is a power beyond my human will that can do wonderful, loving things for me that I can't do for myself.  I see this glorious power at work in my own being, and I see the miraculous results of this same power in the lives of thousands of other recovering compulsive gamblers who are my friends in the GA Program.

Do I need the grace of God and the loving understanding any less now than when I began my recovery?

Today I Pray - May I never forget that my spiritual needs are as great today as they were when I came into GA.  It is so easy to look at others, newer to the recovery process, and regard them as the needy ones.  As I think of myself as increasingly independent, may I never overlook my dependence on my Higher Power.

Today I Will Remember - I will never outgrow my need for God.
