Spiritual reality takes investment of time and energy. The time involved is one’s lifetime. The energy involved is taping into the deepest reserves we have. Trying to remove all the anger, hurt, greed, selfishness, lust, fear, and all the negative aspects of self, that reside inside our hearts and minds, this is a daily exercise. The 11th step is about utilizing the tools of prayer, and meditation to keep a conscious contact with a Power Greater than ourselves. It’s the presence of self that keeps us shaded from the light of Spiritual Awareness. The surrender must come daily, and that surrender is the daily access of faith, the 3rd principle. When we surrender, it is a sign that we are trusting that this is giving way to a better solution than holding on to something that has failed to work. The reality and truth of this is that we only have small victories over the things that bind us to ourselves, but the largest victory we have, is that we lay the ground work for change towards the heart of Spiritual Awareness, which leads us into the realm of walking a spiritual path. The guidelines are as old as man, the walking towards, is up to us. May Peace find you, may you reach for love, may you achieve greatness in the eyes or your truth, and may we share the goodness in the world we all live in.
