This was one of my biggest obstacles in Recovery: I wanted everything to be perfect. This type of thinking kept me stuck for many years in the disease. Instead of my program being One Day At A Time, it was always "one day later and I will do your will God."
Now I know that Today is all I have. I have no guarantees for tomorrow. So I let go and let God, and do the best I can. I have discovered that I do not have to work a perfect program. Not everything has to be just "right."
ONE DAY AT A TIME . . .
One day at a time I do the footwork that is required of me and leave the results to God.
