The more I do step and the more I pray, the more I realize maybe prayer does not change situations at all. Maybe the purpose of prayer is to change me.
Ever wondered what prayer really means in the context of recovery? In this episode of 'Sober Meditations', Buddy C. dives into the essence of prayer as part of the Step 11 series. This is not about asking for specific outcomes or telling a higher power what to do. Instead, Buddy frames prayer as an act of surrender and acceptance.
Drawing from his personal journey, he explains how his approach to prayer has shifted over the years—from asking for blessings to sending love and positive thoughts to others. Buddy's story is compelling. After nearly losing his life to pancreatitis and enduring five years of relapse, he finally embraced the concept of powerlessness over alcohol in 2008. Since then, he's been sober and has cultivated a deep, open-minded approach to recovery.
This episode reflects that philosophy, offering listeners a fresh perspective on prayer and its role in achieving peace and acceptance. With just five minutes of meditation, Buddy encourages you to make prayer a daily practice. He shares practical tips for effective prayer and meditation, emphasizing that the benefits extend far beyond sobriety. Whether you're struggling with addiction or simply seeking a moment of calm in your day, this episode offers valuable insights.
'Sober Meditations' is a free resource available on both Apple and Google Play app stores. With over 400 episodes, it provides a wealth of contemplative practices recorded by those who have walked the path of recovery. Tune in to Buddy C.'s second meditation in the Step 11 series and discover how surrendering through prayer can transform your life.
