Intuition

When we place our will and our lives in God’s care in step three, we give God our intuition as well. ~  The Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Overeaters Anonymous (Kindle Locations 281-282)

So, we give God our intuition?
Our  ability to immediately understand
without need of conscious reasoning?
Where did we get it but from God?
Isn’t that circular? If I come in powerless
I’m guessing that means my intuition’s broken.
But it’s fixed if it’s involved in Step Three…
I offer myself to Thee, to build with me,
to build with me and to do with me
as Thou wilt. Relieve me of the bondage of self,
that I may better do Thy will.
Take away my difficulties,
that victory over them
may bear witness to those I would help
of Thy Power, Thy Love, and Thy Way of life.
May I do Thy will always!
So, my intuition is part of me
turned over to God, so it’s his,
but my gift to him by surrender.
