Daily Reflections


A SENSE OF BELONGING

Perhaps one of the greatest rewards of meditation and prayer is the sense of
belonging
that comes to us.
TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 105

That's what it is -- belonging! After a session of meditation I knew that
the feeling I was
experiencing was a sense of belonging because I was so relaxed. I felt
quieter inside,
more willing to discard little irritations. I appreciated my sense of humor.
What I also
experience in my daily practice is the sheer pleasure of belonging to the
creative flow of
God's world. How propitious for us that prayer and meditation are written
right into our
A.A. way of life.
