A God letter ?
 
A friend passed this on to me.. I plan on writing one today
 
 It was passed onto them by a man in his 90's who got it from someone in Akron back in the 40's. They have first hand seen the power of this many times, and when people do it the results are nothing less than amazing. Its a very good tool when we need relief NOW, and can not get it through everything else we have tried. You do not have to wait however to use it, it works no matter what the concern. The only requirement just like the program is to have a desire and a open mind and let it happen.

Get 2 pieces of paper and a pen, and make sure you do this when no one is around, take the phone off the hook.

On the first piece of paper you will write "Dear God" or whatever you call your Higher Power. If you have no Higher Power leave it blank...you will see that it does not matter...then you will start writing everything that is bothering you. Do not think about it or go back and correct anything change anything or add anything, just keep writing until you get everything you need to out.

Put the paper down, and find a comfortable place to relax, sit back and just zone. Meditate if you know how, or just think of things that make you feel warm , the point is to let your body from your eyes to your toes just relax go limp , surrender to good feelings. Think of whatever makes you happy. But not about what you wrote or what the next step is.

In 30 minutes or less , no less than 15, pick up the second piece of paper. Write "Dear ______(insert your name)"
Start writing, this time do not think about what you wrote on the other paper, just start writing. It does not matter how much, you will know when to stop. Some people get long answers some not. And yes its a answer..and no its not going to be from you.!!


I did not believe this, and most people are skeptical. Its a personal experience that so far I have had no one say , it did not work. I have seen many people who did not believe in any God blown away by this.

There are times in our life that no human power can relieve us of our suffering or confussion. God could and would if HE WERE SOUGHT...

That IS way too cool........... I've heard people talk of God Letter, but never did ask to have it explained to me. 

Thank you so very much for the post, I will be trying it out. 

YOU ROCK...

Hi Sobertrucker!

The closest I've come is the post a little further down "Open Letter to My HP"  LOL!

Like Whats, I've often heard of this, but never got full instructions --

thanks for sharing!

Tuesday I went back to work after being sick since last Thursday evening.I felt kinda weird,and kinda yucky inside.

I pulled my truck over and cut it off.I got my pen and paper out and said a little prayer and got to writing.It really amazed me when I finished  and read it all.One part really got to me,it said "there is nothing you have done that cannot be forgiven or fixed"

 

in a matter of about 20 minutes or so I went from feeling weird to feeling a good sense of love and assurance that my HP was still there and still loved me and was interested in me.Carol,when I read your letter to God,I thought,this is got to be another one of those  "considences"   :-)

 

hope you all have a great day!

Allow me to offer feedback...  Firstly when one writes down what's alive in them and they're sharing their truths from a place of fear there will only be more fear...fear attracts more fear.
When one connects with their inner truth, through meditation, you have connected with your spirit and you are now with all that is and your body, spirit, hormones, biological systems, chemicals systems, and your mind are in the flow of our Universe.  You are connected to God...if you believe in God or you can insert whatever your higher power may be.
Fact: when were are in normal dialogue through the day we are stimulating about 4-8 percent of brain, it just depends on the person really.  :-)  However, when we are in a meditation we stimulate over 80% of our mind.  This has been proven by modern science!!

They both keep you company when you're getting clean.
