Walk In Dry Places

The world will recover

Belief

If our recovery program is working properly, an amazing thing can

happen. Instead of being the bad actors of society, we become people

who can be considered solid citizens in every way.. So square that we

might even have sharp corners.

We might then start becoming critical of the world in general. "I've

recovered, so why does the rest of the world have to be the way it is?"

A person might say. "Why don't other people do something about their

resentments and fears, just as I have?"

In asking such a question, we're already in danger of becoming self-righteous.

We can remember, however, that our Higher Power has the same concern

for others that was shown to us. By the grace of God, and in God's own

good time, the world can and will recover.

I'll remember today that God is in charge of the world and will set all

things straight, just as I was brought to recovery.

Seemed like Divine intervention when I was brought to the doors of recovery.

I thought there were people much needier than I was. Young people who had time to turn their life around instead of me at the old age of 49.

It took a while to create to a realization that I was one of the really sick ones.

I qualified for AA, NA, and Al-Anon too, plus a few others, besides Adult Children.
