Acceptance

"And acceptance is the answer to all my
problems today. I need to concentrate
not so much on what needs to be changed
in the world as what needs to be changed
in me and in my attitudes."
The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous

There is one problem and one solution. Resistance is the problem and acceptance the answer. But how do I become willing? I was in a situation today, where I saw clearly that, if only I could let go of my ideas I would be happy. But I could not. Whatever prayer I used, whoever I plead for help. The idea kept circling in my mind. I realized that I still try to use ideas from the past to help me now. Like I had a revelation once with The Serenity Prayer and now I want to have the same result. It dawned on me that I even these prayers can’t help me, if I am trying to help myself. My only solution is the surrender to my Higher Power. Let go and let GOD.
