Being Diligent About My Recovery Today

Those who make steady progress in recovery are those who remain focused and give careful attention each day to what works. One day becomes one week, then one month, one year, and even one decade. We call this being diligent!
Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked so hard to achieve. Be diligent so that you receive your full reward. Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress. (2 John 1:8, NLT, 1 Timothy 4:15 NIV)

The challenge for each of us is not to slack off or get distracted when things are going well. Where we are today did not come by our own power or smarts. It is God working in us. It is God giving us what we need in each set of circumstances, and us being willing to pay attention to His guidance and follow His direction.
God can bless you with everything you need, and you will always have more than enough to do all kinds of good things for others. (2 Corinthians 9:8 CEV)

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I am powerless without You. Help me each day to be diligent in the spiritual practices that keep me conscious of Your will for my life and the power to continually carry it out. Amen
