The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
many different ways to use this & it's a great idea; just tailor it to your own needs.
Some use the God box, like to write down things they are having trouble letting go of & in a "ritualistic" manner put the issue or trouble into the box, jar (wtvr) & literally "give it to God"
did that make sense... write it down, maybe say a prayer, "I give this to You - God to handle according to your Divine Will" & put it in your box & forget about it!
I used to do the same thing, write things down & burn the paper, as a way to release it.
**You can also use it conversely, make up a God box for hopes & dreams, things you wish for or think you might want to come to pass... then u could read them months later to see how you are progressing or if you even still want those things.
I personally, am a writer & I write words, signs & tape them all over my walls to remind me of what I am focusing on (or simple sayings) I find this helps me a lot. I have a lot of negative self talk that I am working on ridding myself of, so seeing positive affirmations remind me of the way I want to be thinking, more gently & lovingly towards myself.
hope this helps, -k

My GOD box, or BOOK, is really imaginary in away. My slogan is Let go and Let god. I write my God book here on my computer and it helps me to let things go. It is amazing when I do how it works. My god box is a box in my home that you would never know is used for anything, it is decor. I write things down and place it inside, again letting it go. This all started for me just not too long ago. But it is working wonders for me.
A God box is for those things we have no control over, people places and things the idea is u put them in the box and let go. God will take care of them while we get our lives back on track. I read an article about 10 yrs ago and took evryone out of the box and climbed in myself , the God of my understanding looks after me , you see I always forgot that the people I loved had thier own higher power and that they would be looked after. I havent crawled out of that box once , God runs my life today and I have noticed that other people I love seem to be finding thier way too with no help from me . amazing Louise
