February 22

God's will, or mine

"We continued to take inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it."

Step Ten

––––=––––

In Narcotics Anonymous, we've found that the more we live in harmony with our Higher Power's will for us, the greater the harmony in our lives. We use the Tenth Step to help us maintain that harmony. On a daily basis, we take time to look at our behavior. Some of us measure each action with a very simple question: "God's will or mine?" In many cases, we find that our actions have been in tune with our Higher Power's will for us, and we in turn have been in tune with the world around us. In some cases, however, we will discover inconsistencies between our behavior and our values. We've been acting on our own will, not God's, and the result has been dissonance in our lives.

When we discover such inconsistencies, we admit we've been wrong and take corrective action. With greater awareness of what we believe God's will for us to be in such situations, we are more likely to live in greater concord with our Higher Power's will for us and with the world around us.

Just for today:

I wish to live in harmony with my world. Today, I will examine my actions, asking, "God's will or mine?"
