Making the Decision
2009 May 19
Step three of Co-Dependents Anonymous states “Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood God”. This third step is significant as it relates to the Serenity Prayer; “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference”.
We can relinquish/release our inner conflicts and experience serenity by making the decision to turn our unfulfilled needs (biological relationships), our wants, our desires, our egos, our lives over to the care of God as we understand God and experience the bliss. It takes emotional work to make the definitive decision to experience our bliss and connection to our higher power. It is then that we can embrace the power of present time the power of the now!
