Progress
from: "On His Way"
"My intelligence, instead of drawing me further away from spiritual faith, is bringing me closer to it.... The simple words 'Thy Will Be Done' and the simple ideas of honesty and of helping others are taking on a new meaning for me. I should not be surprised to find myself coming to the conclusion that God, whoever or whatever He may be, is eminently more capable of running the universe than I am. At last I believe I am on my way."

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
If my memory is serving me well, which it generally isn't, it says that we need to take Step Two piecemeal, a little at a time.
I thought I 'knew" who God was. I was a leading authority didn't you know? I went to church three times on Sunday, and prayer meeting on Wednesday for the first seventeen years of my life, with the exception of sick leave.
God is "As He reveals Himself to me today and thankfully, so much more!
