Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.

~Step Three

Care. This is what we turn our will and lives over to: the care of our Higher Power. What peace follows! We see our Higher Power as caring, as loving. We turn everything over to this Higher Power, who can take better care of us than we can by ourselves.

Care can guide us. If we want to do something, we can ask ourselves, "Would my Higher Power see this as an act of care?" If the answer is yes, then we go ahead. If the answer is no, we don't do it. If we can't be sure, we wait and talk it over with our friends and sponsor. We wait until we know whether it would be an act of care or not. What wonderful guidance!
Prayer for the Day

Higher Power, I give to You my will. I give to You my life. I gladly jump into Your loving arms.
Action for the Day

Today I'll care about others. I'll find as many ways as I can to care for others.

Today's reading is from the book Keep it Simple: Daily Meditations for Twelve Step Beginnings and Renewal*
