I Greet The Indwelling Mystic.
Today’s “Pay Forward” gift is – A Mystical Union. The A.A. Spiritual Principles have brought me into a wonderful partnership with our Father. By practicing this way of life I have received an unearned abundance; Spiritual, mental, physical, emotional, and social sobriety. The Spiritual Principles within the Traditions have given me the ability to be a worker among workers. I was told long ago that I would have to work for myself or by myself because I could not get along with people, animals yes, people no. I have been able to share my life with a great many, which is another miracle. I find myself not only willing to share with others in every important area of my life, but wanting and needing to. Alcoholics Anonymous offers us a useful set of tools. When these tools are applied wholeheartedly we gain a better insight into how we relate to God, others and ourselves. I’ve learned how important it is for me to pray and meditate. “Watch and pray” are not idle words any more. When I turn within to our Father, I experience A.A.’s promises, “Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us.” “We will intuitively know how to handle situations, which used to baffle us.” At times, my heart is filled to overflowing; I obey His guidance, and I find myself doing what turns out to be acts of love, that Divine Mystical Union with our Father. Thy Love, Thy Will be done.
