The message we carry goes beyond the rooms of recovery, affecting everything we do.
What a difference our service efforts make! If we doubt this, we can just imagine what the world would be like if no one bothered to be of service to others. Our work serves humanity.
The actions we undertake in each of the steps bring more and more recovery to each area of our lives. And prayer keeps us connected to our Higher Power. Together, action and prayer keep us well-grounded in recovery.
Narcotics Anonymous has worked for so many addicts because it is a carefully designed program of action and prayer.
Wishing doesn’t work in recovery; this isn’t a program of magic. If wishes cured addiction, we all would have been well long ago! What does give us relief in recovery is action and prayer.
Narcotics Anonymous does not affiliate with outside organizations, such as a treatment center. NA does not offer advice or endorse outside organizations. NA relies on the "therapeutic value of one addict helping another."
