God is the strength in which I trust.
The first three steps of Alcoholic Anonymous are humdingers. They ask us to recognize that on our own, our lives are unmanageable. Then they ask us to turn our sanity over to our Higher Power. They ask us, as is stated in this forty seventh lesson, to turn our will over and say that God is the strength in which I trust.
In Unitarian Universalism we covenant together to affirm and promote seven principles the fourth of which is the free and responsible search for truth and meaning, and when we apply this principle it takes us to a place where we come to realize that God is the strength in which I trust.
We are asked today to take 4 5 minute periods to meditate. To clear our thoughts of all fears, all anger, all sadness and just settle into the peace and joy of the non dualistic Oneness from which we have emerged and to which we will return. Simply relax and experience the Unconditional Love of God in which I trust.
