A.A. Thought for the Day
On the
foundation of sobriety, we can build a life of honesty, unselfishness, faith in
God, and love of our fellow human beings. We'll never fully reach these goals,
but the adventure of building that kind of a life is so much better than the
merry-go-round of our old drinking life that there's no comparison. We come into
A.A. to get sober, but if we stay long enough we learn a new way of living. We
become honest with ourselves and with other people. We learn to think more about
others and less about ourselves. And we learn to rely on the constant help of a
Higher Power. Am I living the way of honesty, unselfishness, and faith?
Meditation for the Day
I believe that God had already seen my
heart's needs
before I cried to Him, before I was conscious of those needs
myself. I believe that God was already preparing the answer. God does not have
to be petitioned with sighs and tears and much speaking before he reluctantly
looses the desired help. He has already anticipated my every want and need. I
will try to see this, as His plans unfold in my life.
Prayer
for the Day
I pray that I may understand my real wants
and needs. I pray that my understanding of those needs and wants may help to
bring the answer to them.
