NOVEMBER 5 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Meditation is opening myself to the Spirit of God"
Update: 2025-11-05
Description
For many months after I came to Gamblers Anonymous, I paid little attention to the Eleventh Step, to the practice of serious meditation and prayer. I felt that it might help me meet an emergency - such as a sudden craving to return to gambling but it remained among the lowest levels on my list of priorities. In those early days, I equated prayer and meditation with mystery and even hypocrisy. I've since found that the results of prayer and meditation are more rewarding than I could have ever imagined. For me today, the harvest is increasingly bountiful, and I continue to gain peace of mind and strength far beyond my human limitations.
Is my former pain being replaced by tranquility?
Today I Pray … May I find my own best way to God, my own best technique of meditation whether I use an oriental mantra or the name of Jesus Christ, or just allow the spirit of God, as I understand Him, to settle into me and give me peace. By whatever means I reach my God, may I learn to know Him well and feel His presence - not only in these quiet times, but in everything I do.
Today I Will Remember … Meditation is opening myself to the spirit of God.
