• You could sit on top of a mountain praying for hours a day and still not make it if you had no love in your heart.

Only communion with your Higher Self will reveal your path to you.

The eleventh step of AA's twelve-step program states it beautifully: "Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood him, praying only for knowledge of his will for us and the power to carry that out."
