“In a difficult struggle, people have to have victories. Even if they are not major.” (Martin Luther King, Jr.)

I can meet hardship and sorrow with prayer and the willingness to feel the pain while in recovery. In this way, God can emphasize the needed growth in my life today. With this growth, God can show me how to help others. It is a legitimate way to help build His Kingdom.

I can surrender my struggles to the wisdom of the fellowship.

Higher Power, help me stay focused. My staying in the moment is crucial, as is your unconditional love. Amen.
