24 Hours A Day

A.A. Thought For The Day

In Alcoholics Anonymous there is no thought of individual
profit. No greed or gain. No membership fees, no dues.
Only voluntary contributions of our money and ourselves.
All that we hope for is sobriety and regeneration, so that
we can live normal, respectable lives and can be recognized
by others as men and women willing to do unto others as we
would be done by. These things we accomplish by the help
of each other, by following the twelve steps and by the
grace of God. Am I willing to work for A.A. without
material gain to myself?

Meditation For The Day

What is sometimes called by religion as conversion is often
only the discovery of God as a friend in need. What is
sometimes called religion is often only the experiencing of
the help and strength of God's power in our lives. What is
sometimes called holiness is often only the invitation of
God to be our Friend. As God becomes your friend, you
become a friend of others. We experience true human
friendship and from this experience we can imagine what
kind of Great Friend God can be. We believe Him to be a
tireless, selfless, all conquering, miracle-working Friend.
We can reach out to the Great Friend and figuratively take
His hand in ours.

Prayer For The Day

I pray that I may think of God as a Great Friend in need.
I pray that I may go along with Him.
