Day 217— The Way That It Works

Recovery is like being employed, for it takes a lot of work to continue to grow. There should never be a time when you are not willing to learn something new about yourself, your recovery, people, and the world around you. We sometimes make the fatal mistake of thinking we know enough when we have barely scratched the surface. I like the 12-steps of recovery, they are very realistic and can be very helpful when utilized the right way. What is the wrong way? Somebody else’s way. Make them work for you; this is your recovery. Every single last step is spiritual to me and when I use them with what’s in my Bible it works. Find a way to make them work for you.
