Today, I stand in the middle of a full-fledged spiritual awakening. I have begun working the Steps in earnest, albeit grudgingly. I have begun to follow suggestions provided by other members. I’m beginning to realize that God tapped me on the shoulder that day and told me all I would ever need to know. Now I know that to learn how to apply the great wisdom God revealed to me that day, I need to join my fellows. ~ Overeaters Anonymous.

I stand in the middle
of a full-fledged spiritual awakening.
I try to do my part, working the Steps,
listening to others, understanding
my Higher Power may well be speaking
through other people, using the resources
available, actively working the program.
And I know my Higher Power is with me
without exception, whether I choose
to communicate or not. God set it up
for the fellowship to hold me, be used
for God’s communication.But if I listen,
if I try, if I stand united with my fellows.
I stand in the middle
of a full-fledged spiritual awakening.
