~ FAITH ~ The inability of the materialistic mind to grasp the idea of the Life Eternal is no proof of the non-existence of that life. ‘Abdu’l-Baha I grew up in a family where there was no belief in the existence of God, although we were told that it was up to us to decide where to put our faith. I struggled through various addictions and disorders, but never forgot that one special time as a child, where I spontaneously went down on my knees one night to pray to God, who for a few moments had suddenly become very real. As an adult, my belief in a Higher Power came and went like the breeze, so that some days I was an atheist, others an agnostic, and at other times filled with an awareness that God is in all things. I am grateful that my addiction to overeating has brought me to this Twelve Step program. Every day I come to believe that a Power greater than myself can restore my sense of balance, and I make sure that I put in effort to maintain my conscious connection with God. One Day at a Time . . . I pray that my spiritual faculties and aspirations will daily increase, and that I will never allow the material senses to veil my eyes from the light of my Higher Power. ~ John M. ~
