MATERIAL AND SPIRITUAL WELL-BEING Fear...of economic insecurity will leave us. (Big book pg. 84) For us, material well-being always followed spiritual progress; it never preceeded(pg.127). I saw spiritual progress would diminish that terrible fear, just as it diminished many other fears. Today I try to use the talents god gave me to benefit others. Ive found that is what others valued all along. I try to remember that I no longer work for myself. I only get the wealth god created. I never have owned it. My lifes purpose is much clearer when I just work to help, NOT TO POSSESS.(daily reflections) This was one of my greatest fears. It drove me to do many evil things. I lacked the faith in my higher power, that if I would just do Its will, It would take care of me, meet my needs. I like the story in the bible that teaches birds dont worry because they know god will provide for them, and if hell sustain birds why not us.
