First, we have to quit playing god. Next, this is how we decided that hereafter, in this drama of life, god was going to be our director. We stop trying to run the whole show and we're going to follow the directions of the director, and god is going to be our director.
Peter M from the Primary Purpose Group in Cannes, France, takes center stage in this episode of Sober Cast, guiding listeners through a Big Book Study on 'How It Works' (pages 62-67). Recorded during the summer of 2022 at the Global Lockdown Group in India, Peter unpacks the profound impact of the Third Step Prayer.
He delves into the crucial role of honesty in the inventory process, shedding light on how ego and resentment can be detrimental to one's recovery journey. Peter shares his own experiences with these challenges, making his reflections both relatable and inspiring. Listeners will find Peter's emphasis on the spiritual malady and its symptoms particularly enlightening. He discusses how relinquishing control and allowing a higher power to direct one's life can lead to significant personal growth.
By personalizing the Third Step Prayer, Peter believes individuals can find immense relief and strength. His candid discussion on quitting the act of 'playing god' and embracing divine guidance offers a fresh perspective on sobriety. Throughout the episode, Peter's insights are not just theoretical but grounded in his own journey towards sobriety. This makes his advice practical and actionable for anyone struggling with similar issues.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for a while, Peter's teachings on the Third Step Prayer and inventory process are bound to resonate deeply. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of these critical aspects of the Big Book and discover how they can aid in your own recovery journey.
