*~*~*~*~*^ Big Book Quote ^*~*~*~*~*

"We never apologize to anyone for depending upon our Creator. We can
laugh at those who think spirituality the way of weakness.
Paradoxically, it is the way of strength. The verdict of the ages is
that faith means courage. All men of faith have courage. They trust
their God. We never apologize for God. Instead we let Him
demonstrate, through us, what He can do. We ask Him to remove our
fear and direct our attention to what He would have us be. At once,
we commence to outgrow fear."

~Alcoholics Anonymous, 1st Edition, How It Works, pg. 68~

thats what I call the fear prayer
I have used it many times and still use it when necessary.
I usually name the fear by name.

then i go about the busines at hand.

It also reminds me of action.If my Creator is to demonstrate thru me His Power,then that means I need to get into action, so others can see what He can do.

that way,I can`t take the credit......It is the Father who does the works
