My sponsor has said that to me twice now in the last two days. "Turn it over." When I have had problems in my life arise, where I might be mad or sad or angry. He has told me to turn it over. I have had to turn over my problems to god, my HP. Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. When it is out of my hands, all I can do is say a prayer and hope it is in his will for things to turn out. Maybe they won't turn out my way, but they willturn out the way that they are suppose to be at that very moment. So God, I am turning this over to you at this point, he knows what I mean.

Dear LL, I believe there's a reason why we don't have all the answers. When we can't figure it out we are supposed to turn it over to God. And if our answers don't come quickly enough, don't be discouraged. As God has his own perfect timing. I recently found a thread on the family/partners of addicts,called Letting It Go. I hope you will find some Peace & Encouragement on this thread. LL youv'e encouraged me more than you know. I love how you jump up back on the saddle in the midst of so much pain. You are a Hero to someone,even if that person is a stranger to you. I'm glad you have a strong program & a sponser who cares about you. I believe in you! May God's Light Be Upon You!
Love, Chris

Thanks for sharing...I too have to turn things over, sometimes on a daily basis as I can take things back after I give them up....Today, for me, I pray in the morning, Give it to God, do the footwork and let God worry about the results...when I do this, I am free to live in today....
((hugs))

Thanks so much. I have some big things going on in my life right now That I have to turn over to God. I have no power over the situation and I only can pray for them. I know what I would like to see happen, but I know that I have zero ability to change minds or feelings. It is horrible being powerless, especially when it comes to love. I am in such a bad place right now, but I will not drink over it. It is not who I want to be.

Hi LL...The Serenity Prayer is my mantra...I have had a few big decisions myself the last couple of months...and it is amazing though that when we let go...how everything falls into place...how everything works out...maybe not the way we "planned" but it works out perfectly....
I made the decision to sell my house and move to another area that is more affordable...and slowly...things are just working out...and I sit here and wonder why I was so upset...so afraid...but LL we are human and we "worry"...and project...and we fear...It is what we do with all that...that matters....Faith...some days it comes so easily...some days not...but if we keep working our program, or letting go, or praying, or just keep putting one foot in front of the other....it all works out okay...

I have found that when i hand over other peoples problems or what i think are other peoples problems nothing happens because they are my wants and fears for other people, I have to hand over my own worries and fears to do with me.
