“We can stop and ask God for guidance. Our Higher Power’s guidance will let us use our great human faculty, our intuition. We can live life with some wisdom and a great deal of wit. We gain more trust in God, ourselves, and other human beings.”
– Life with Hope, first edition, page 53
After choosing to embrace and believe in a Higher Power, I no longer need to live in doubt and fear. Instead, I am able to live in a space where my intuition, through God’s guidance, will ultimately lead to the next indicated right step of action. By no longer relying on my own self-will, my Higher Power’s will for me can make every situation acceptable, knowing my Higher Power is in control. I can live with my faith that everything happens for a reason under God’s eyes; thus, I can trust the process of life, including myself, and those around me.
Final thought: Today, I am able to act according to any situation, because I have the moral guidance from my Higher Power.

By Haley B. I didn’t know what marijuana was until I was in high school. When I learned about it, I was completely against it for many reasons. For one, it was illegal and I was as straight-laced as a 14-year-old could possibly be. Two, it sounded terrifying to lose control of yourself with a…
