Letting go...

I'm letting go. I surrender. I'm giving it all to God. I am putting my trust and faith in His will and timing, believing that He is working all things together for my good.

Saying the Third Step Prayer every day helped me a lot:

The Third Step Prayer
from page 63 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous

God, I offer myself to Thee-
To build with me
and to do with me as Thou wilt.
Relieve me of the bondage of self,
that I may better do Thy will.
Take away my difficulties,
that victory over them may bear witness
to those I would help of Thy Power,
Thy Love, and Thy Way of life.
May I do Thy will always!

I did some Step 1 work over the past 24 hours.
Admitting I was powerless over love ...was perhaps the most emotionally charged moments of my life. The tears were primal...they were from my core wounding. I am certain of it.

Surrender is both painful...and freeing.
