Perhaps one of the greatest rewards of meditation and prayer is the
sense of belonging that comes to us. We no longer live in a completely hostile world.
We are no longer lost and frightened and purposeless. The moment we catch

that when we turn to Him, all will be well with us, here and
hereafter. Twelve Steps & Twelve Traditions pg.
