AA Thought for the Day

September 28, 2006

Hindsight

When I turn my will and my life over to the care of God,
I have the possibility of feeling peace, serenity,
contentment, and acceptance;
my situation is exactly the way it is supposed to be
at that moment, even if I may not think so.
Hindsight has proven time and time again
that my life always works out for the best,
and better than I could have imagined,
when I stay out of the driver's seat.


Reprinted from Box 1980: The AA Grapevine, October 2006, Page 55. Reprinted with permission of The A.A. Grapevine, Inc.


Thought to Ponder....

I can't do His will my way.



Recovery Related Acronym

K I S S = Keep It Simple, Surrender.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is how I deal with a personal situation.

Today my addicted son Ross is 50.
He has been missing 12 years.

I picture him recovered and zooming around
on his Harley on a beech.



Ross... God Bless
