A recent study suggests that we have as much will power as we think we have. When we make our resolutions to change something in ourselves, we are as successful as we think we have the power to be. If we think we have no will power, then we will fail to carry out our resolution to change. So the study suggests. Addiction and recovery paths seem to agree with the study.
If someone discovers that they cannot stop doing something, an addiction, they realize that they have no will power. What to do? Well, get someone else's power. Borrow some. The addict borrows from a Higher Power. The addict borrows on a daily basis. It is like getting daily food from a food bank. You go each day because you need to eat each day.
In my religion, only the delusional think that they can be consistently good on their own. Most of us realize that if we are going to grow in holiness and be transformed away from our bad habits, then we will need help. We will need it on a daily basis. An addict knows that to go to the well but once a week is a dangerous practice. Daily works. So why do so many of us think that once a week to ask for power is enough?
