When we drank/used, some of us vaguely understood a Higher Power. We viewed God as something/someone we only reached out to when things got tough. In jail, we hit our knees and begged to get out of this one and promised that we would never do this shit again. Only, we would do that shit again. Maybe you prayed for the room to stop spinning and throwing up that cheeseburger and fries you just poured down your throat. Either way, your idea of connecting to a Higher Power was more of a hotline than any spiritual endeavor. Today, in recovery, we try to have a relationship with this power we call “God” or our “Higher Power.” As we go about our day, we can have an ongoing conversation that can develop into loving guidance that we seem to connect with more often than not. For some, it’s not an easy practice to begin. For others, it’s near impossible. But it can be done if you remain honest, open-minded, and willing. Seeking this connection may be the inner strength you have been looking for this whole time.
