A GOD OF OUR UNDERSTANDING —

Whatever our understanding, even though we cannot see God, God is everywhere—even when we don’t remember. Many of us still spend time each day trying to manipulate future outcomes and control other people in the process. We wear ourselves out attempting to manage the unmanageable, while our Higher Power patiently waits to receive our burdens. All we need to do is hand them over now.

When we surrender all our concerns to God—both our failures and our successes—we begin to realize the depth of God’s care and the constancy of God’s presence in our lives. Learning to acknowledge our Higher Power as our protector and guide is exhilarating and eases our every step, thought, plan, and dream. We are learning that we don’t have to do anything alone.

Today, I’ll realize that I can do anything if I let my Higher Power join me in partnership.
