What a mysterious thing prayer is, we all do it in one form or another. Wanting to be self reliant I scoffed at the practice of prayer. When I was a newcomer to recovery my sponsor suggested I begin the practice of prayer to which I told him I didn't need that sh*t. Then he asked, if I had ever done a foxhole prayer ? I said yes, I had to admit it, I had. Why did you do that ? he asked, I really didn't know. I thought maybe it was because things were really bad and I didn't know where to turn to get help. He said, that may have been why, but why wait until then to turn to the power found in prayer. He said, if I was to start the practice of using it daily that I would become dependent upon that power, and he said, for you that would be a good thing. I said, I don't know who I'm praying to or how to do it. He said just simply talk daily to whatever I had prayed to when I did my foxhole prayer. He said that would be all that I needed to do to have that power
