My part was to let God do it, and it was very difficult for me to learn how to let God do it. And that's what the steps do for me.
Have you ever felt like your own willpower is both your best friend and worst enemy in your recovery journey? Buddy C. gets it. In this episode of 'Sober Meditations', he leads you through a five-minute meditation focused on the tricky concept of self-will in Step 3 of the Alcoholics Anonymous program. With a calm and reassuring voice, Buddy shares his own experiences of constantly relapsing, even after a near-death experience, until he learned to surrender to a higher power.
This isn't just about giving up control; it's about finding peace and strength in letting go. Buddy guides listeners to relax, breathe deeply, and reflect on how self-will can often lead us astray, even when we have the best intentions. He quotes from the Big Book, illustrating how trying to steer our own ship often results in collisions with others. The key takeaway? Aligning your will with a higher power can bring about profound change.
Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Buddy encourages you to trust the process, write down your thoughts, and seek out ways to help others as part of your recovery journey. This episode offers a blend of wisdom and practical tools, making it a valuable resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of surrender in alcohol recovery.
