My Higher Power gives the best to me when I give my choice to Him. ∼The Pocket Sponsor

We spiritually wake up to a bright shining light, delivered from past despair and darkness. We learn, through our Eleventh Step, to reach for our Higher Power and communicate at the deepest level. This becomes our shining light. In this communication (one of sharing and listening), we are guided through another day of recovery. We know that if we give our best to spirituality, His grace, love, and tolerance is given to us. But giving our best to God does not mean “thinking” about it, mouthing the words, or simply reading this meditation. Giving our best means asking for direction and then actually taking that direction. Giving our best is not a theory, it is an action. So we ask ourselves this question, “Am I ready and willing to accept God’s illuminated path by doing the footwork? Or, am I still shining that tiny flashlight of self-will through the darkness?”

God gave me self-will and I choose

to will that back to God.

And there are those who are conscious of a powerful or subtle spiritual experience. The light is let into the dark places within, and the presence of God is felt.
