I know I've already told you but I didn't want to leave a post unanswered, so I'll start lol.
I don't know what my higher power is. I just know that I believe in something greater than myself and alcohol. Sometimes I believe its my good conscience, sometimes I think it can't be a part of me at all. For me, I have my own higher power thats just mine. And my higher power can't control everything in the world, my higher power just guides me. And when I'm interracting with others, my higher power interacts with the others' higher powers. For me, its just a belief that I'm being taken care of if I trust in my higher power. When I have a decision to make, I ask for guidence. When I get the crazy thought that a drink might be a good idea, I ask my higher power to remove that from me and guide me to doing the next right thing. When I'm agitated, I pause and ask for the next right thought or direction.
I don't know WHAT I'm asking guidence from though. The second step says we came to believe, not came to understand. And not having to understand or being told what to believe, is the only thing that allows me to have faith.
My faith is my own and a personal decision, and I like that.
