Father Leo’s Daily Meditation #essentialsofrecovery

TEACHING

The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.”

— Mark Van Doren

I have a need of a “sponsor” in my life. Somebody I turn to when I have problems, when I am confused or in pain, when I simply need to talk, when I feel lonely or when I am about to make a major change in my life. Every addict needs a sponsor; somebody to bounce ideas off, especially ideas that affect the living of my life because I truly understand that the disease of alcoholism lives in my life!
My sponsor guides, suggests and gently leads me to where I need to go; he does not demand or dictate. My sponsor is a friend whom I can trust, and he makes a point of not being a “fixer” in my life. He will not allow me to escape into his life. He will not allow me to become addicted to him.
O God, let me always be free enough to discover You in my life.
