The spiritual life is not a theory as we read this in the
big book of AA. We “Have” to experience
it. The behavior we present will manifest itself to others who will be baffled
by our creative selves. We may even faze ourselves as to how change has come
upon us from our new found spiritual life.
This all comes from knowing and understanding God as we see
him. Or how you see him. Sometimes a spiritual connection to God will just some
over us from being in our AA group. Others get a spiritual relief in all sorts
of ways. A spiritual awakening is the most gratifying experience one can take.
It is when you no longer take control, yet give power over to God as you see
him. I may be repeating myself here, but rightfully so. God controls our
thoughts and actions when we let him. A simple prayer will do this

There are those who cannot or will not disclose their minds
to let God come into their lives. There are such unfortunates, but they can if
they give God a try. Kneeling at your bed at night and praying for divine relief
is a prerequisite for those of us that trust in him, first thing in the morning
while taking a shower, pray to God, this works also. I have work to do today, and I have to ask God
to help me stop shaking and allow me to concentrate on the now, not the later. That is
my problem, and I ask for guidelines through God for this action. Does it seem
to be? Usually if I let go and let God take over.
The spirit of God is all around us, the beauty of women,
flowers and trees, are all God like objects to me. They are all beautiful and
not possible without the spirit of God. I can see so many different things in
my life that made me sick before now that I can change my life over to God. A
new awakening is a sense of being ok with your thoughts. God will allow it, but
you must apply for it.
