and alcoholics and their codependents all have trouble letting go, letting God, turning
things over to their 'Higher Power,' when they need to. This illustrates it very well:
Broken Toys
As children bring their broken
toys, With tears, for us to mend; I brought my broken dreams to God because he was my
friend.
But then instead of leaving him in peace to work alone, I hung around and tried to help
with ways that were my own.
At last, I snatched them back and cried,
"How could you be so slow?"
"My child," He said, "What could I do?
You never did let go...."
What haven't YOU let go of?
