Jan. 22, 2014 – Today’s Gift from Hazelden

 Wednesday, Jan. 22, 2014

Today’s thought from Hazelden is:

A crisis is an opportunity to rely on our Higher Power.

When we came to this program, we were told right away that a Higher Power is watching out for us and that we can look to that Power whenever we want guidance or peacefulness. Let’s not resist this invitation.

Most of us had daily crises before turning to this program for help. Our attempts to control other people caused many of these crises. So did our reactions to the natural ebb and flow of human existence. Now we have to take the plunge and begin to rely on our God, however we understand God, to show us the way to handle every experience that’s part of our Divine unfolding.

I will look to God today, and every experience will make sense in the whole of my existence.
