The best way I've found to invite serenity is to recognize that the world is in good hands.
Ever felt like you're constantly battling to control everything around you? In this heartfelt episode of 'Al-Anon Reading', Joy de Leon opens up about her transformative experience with the concept of surrendering to a higher power. She candidly shares how her past struggles with treating God as an adversary led her to a deep emotional low. But through Al-Anon, Joy learned that surrendering isn't about giving up—it's about accepting reality and finding peace within it.
Joy recounts how letting go of control allowed her to see that the world, her loved ones, and herself are all in good hands. This realization brought a newfound sense of freedom and serenity into her life. One of the most poignant moments in the episode is Joy's discussion on gratitude. By acknowledging that we aren't in control, we can start to appreciate the beauty in the little things and find joy in everyday moments.
The October 9th reading from 'Courage to Change' serves as a powerful reminder of the first step in Al-Anon: changing our own thinking to set our world in order. Joy’s insights into the importance of surrender and gratitude offer practical advice for anyone looking to achieve peace and live more authentically. This episode is a must-listen for those on their own recovery journey, providing hope and encouragement through Joy's personal stories and the timeless wisdom of Al-Anon principles.
