I pray and I am stronger.
I think of loved ones that have passed away and I am stronger.
I think of my kids and I am stronger.

I have accomplished many things that I thought were impossible by doing this.

Before I started doing the 12 steps, I never really acknowledged this as a higher power but it was always there. I used to think that I was overcoming obstacles on my own. I used to try to rationalize religion & the existence of God but never came to any real conclusion. Now, I realize that my higher power was with me all along and instead of taking it for granted or ignoring it, I embrace it.
