New Post on The Official Blog of The Way Out Podcast! Today's Gift - 2/9/2017

Today's thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:Though we be sick and tired and faint and worn--Lo, all things can be borne.--Elizabeth Chase AkersWhat bothered us most a year ago? A month ago? Even a week ago? It's probably that whatever it was, we were obsessed with it, certain that our futures were ruined, that there was no reasonable solution. It's also probable that we feared we simply couldn't survive the complexity of the situation. But we did. And we always will be able to survive any and all difficulties. We are never, absolutely never, given more than we can handle. In fact, we are given exactly what we need, at any given time. We have many lessons to learn. Fortunately, we have the structure of the Twelve Steps to guide us through the lessons. We need mainly to remember what we are powerless over, that there is a power greater than ourselves, and that life will become simple; we'll need no extra homework when we've turned it over to the care of God. Whatever my problem today, I will let God have it. A solution is in the making. I'll see it just as quickly as I can let go of the problem.
