Who Would Hold to Fear?

We give up fear and indecision, knowing that if we are sincere, our Higher Power will give us the knowledge of our best course in life, along with the willingness and ability to follow that course, even when it seems difficult and uncomfortable. ~The Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Overeaters Anonymous (Kindle Locations 305-306).

Giving up fear, surrendering indecision
should be simple, but, Lord, I know the two.
I always thought ridding myself of negatives,
of things I abhorred, to be enough, even proactive,
but still I find surprise, amazement, a rule-changer —
at least as I grasped the meaning of the real,
the process of letting go, not just a while each day
but day on day, one at a time, as I ask guidance
bring the message passed earlier to me
and give me strength to surrender my baggage
so I might revel in all the good.
