Just for Today meditation for October 16, read by RoyDonations via PayPal and questions may be directed to:[email protected] 16The simplest prayer"praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out."Step Eleven––––=––––How do we pray? With little experience, many of us don't even know how to begin.The process, however, is neither difficult nor complicated.We came to Narcotics Anonymous because of our drug addiction. But underlying that, many of us felt a deep sense of bewilderment with life itself. We seemed to be lost, wandering a trackless waste with no one to guide us. Prayer is a way to gain direction in life and the power to follow that direction.Because prayer plays such a central part in NA recovery, many of us set aside a particular time each day to pray, establishing a pattern. In this quiet time, we "talk" to our Higher Power, either silently or aloud. We share our thoughts, our feelings, our day. We ask, "What would you have me do?" At the same time we ask, "Please give me the power to carry out your will." Learning to pray is simple. We ask for "knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out." By doing that, we find the direction we lacked and the strength we need to fulfill our God's will.––––=––––Just for today:I will set aside some quiet time to "talk" with my Higher Power. I will ask for that Power's direction and the ability to act on it. ––––=––––© NA World ServicesThis podcast is not affiliated with Narcotics Anonymous, and is an independent production of the Works of Wisdom
