Letting Go of Fear:
Those of us who have been clean and sober for a period of time share newcomers' concerns for the future, but we do not share their fear. We know how unsafe they feel, but we know how safe they are. The richness of life is often overlooked by giving minor events too much attention.
By working the steps, going to meetings, and sharing in the fellowship - the newcomer will feel the richness of life and lose his or her fear by working the program and staying clean and sober.
Am I losing my fear?
Higher Power, help me to let go of my fear so that I can be ready to experience the richness of life as it comes my way.
Today I will combat my fear by focusing on the present, not letting myself get hung up on regret and remorse concerning the past, nor on fear and apprehension concerning the future. I will work the program to the best of my ability today, and open myself up to the opportunities that present themselves in order to enhance my recovery and the recovery of others.
God help me to stay clean and sober today!
