My thought for today is Trust. Whenever I think of trust, I think of God. Trust, after all, is defined as assured reliance upon the character, strength, ability or truth of someone of something. I am reminded of the slogan Trust God Clean House Help Others. Helping Others is what I'm all about now. But, I am unable to help others until I first help Bernie and the best way for me to help Bernie is to clean house, to get to the core of what is ailing me and take steps to correct that. I can do that in the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth steps of my recovery program, but I should not embark on that task until I have placed my trust and my reliance upon God. Sometimes I get confused about what God is doing or why He does things, like take people close to me. I need to trust God and trust that He has a plan and that it is beyond my comprehension. I need to continue to have faith that all will be well if I keep close to him and perform his work as best as I can.
