Spiritual Practices & Development Series: Communication with your Creator

In the program of recovery we learn various tools for developing our spirits and they all take much practice and dedication. Over time these practices cultivate a relationship with a Power Greater than ourselves. Discipline is the name of the game for us and we have much more success when we remember that recovery from family addiction is a journey rather than a destination. Can I take a few considerations into practical application this week and be vigilant in watching the steady results I receive?

Considerations to Practice This Week

  1. Spend five minutes each morning being quiet with my Creator, do the same each evening.
  2. Write two things down each day that I am truly grateful for, big or small.
  3. Pause before speaking when I am uncertain of my words or feeling an emotional response on my lips.
  4. Reviewing my day each night in an effort to see where I could improve with the help of my Higher Power.
  5. Search out three new people or situations to pray for each day.
