my daily reflections…

my daily reflections... hope provides me with spiritual enlightenment. faith allows me to use the hope spiritual enlightenment brings to see and feel spiritual awareness. when the works i do become tangible i get to experience the enlightenment that awareness brings. this willingness provides me the spiritual experience livin and practicin the 12 steps promise me. its the miracle of watchin hope and faith bring the untold rewards of humility, peace, and serenity. it spurs within the want to participate in my personal program of recovery and get involved in the fellowship of it. after all, why would i want to continue if optimism couldnt be kept afloat? it has been my experience that when i give away what recovery has given me, i continue to receive even more. spiritual growth has been a gift i could have never thought possible or even craved back in the days of doin my dirt. today, i get to dance with my eyes open, baskin in the spirit of the sun. by merely remainin willin to say yes, my HP develops spiritual gifts that not only help me live but help me live with others. the gift of insight is one of those great unseen benefits. it is the remuneration to see beyond the outward exterior, beyond the pretense, and see through the hypocrisy life can sometimes circulate when i rely upon self alone. with optimism and insight, confidence builds within so that i may honestly continue to look at self, developin the eye of knowledge that enhances my spiritual awareness and experience. this endowment happens after i have begun to heal my physical, mental, and emotional attributes. it is the promise of straightenin out my spiritual malady so that i can enthusiastically repair and heal the items found within personal inventory. learnin to properly understand the difference between my will and Gods will, gives me the serenity to accept things i cannot change, courage to change things i can, and wisdom to understand the difference. recovery shows and teaches me the difference between peace and tension, Gods will, and my will. as i continue to grow in my spiritual awareness today, i get to understand the impossibility of receivin the promises without livin, practicin, and givin the forgiveness, hope, and love, ive been given through the growth of spiritual awareness. 1 day @ a time...
