God, is my SuperHERO

Today, I woke up in a dreary mode...feeling emotionally and physically heavy.  Though I didn't feel up to participating in my morning recovery meetings, I did one small reading. I overcame by taking contrary action...making the healthy choice even though I didn't feel up to it.

Why was I feeling this way...as I reviewed the thoughts that tossed about in my mind, I could see clutter...thoughts of all the things I needed to do in preparation for travel this week; of all the things I needed to do in my personal development programs: record expenses in master expense sheet, complete a 4th step inventory assignment; also needed to apply for positions God blessed me with, read documents kindly provided; clean my home; return seven phone calls....on and on and on.  I was feeling overwhelmed with by vastness of my  "to do" list.  My thoughts insisted that I do all of these things before my departure (in two days).  I stopped and asked God for help...seconds later, I received a text message from a sponsor that included the first step prayer of Debtors Anonymous...it reminded me of my powerlessness and unmanagability of life without the help of God.  I asked for help and I received Amos 9 "and suddenly" assistance...God is my SuperHero...and only a whisper away....He is the way out of no way...He is the Answer Man...

I remembered that I need not worry; that my need in the moment was to calm down...get out of fear (and into trust) of not having enough time... I have all that I need...all the time I need is there...it's a matter of using it wisely and this is where I must rely on God. I must lean not on my own way but acknowledge God in all and he will make my path straight (Prov. 3:5). 

After I'm done with this blog entry, I will spend time with God; ask for Good Orderly Direction for this day; write it down and step faithfully into the day expecting God to guide me...I have the time I need to do what God wants me to do today...Thank you God for the willingness to hear and do your will today....all is well...

Have you spent time with God today?  Will you allow him to be your SuperHero?
