Twenty-Four Hours A Day

*~*~*^Twenty Four Hours A Day^*~*~*

A.A. Thought for the Day

Some things I do not miss since becoming dry: that overall awful feeling
physically, including the shakes, a splitting headache, pains in my arms and legs, bleary eyes, fluttering stomach, droopy shoulders, weak knees, a three-day beard, and a flushed complexion. Also, facing my loved one at breakfast. Also, composing the alibi and sticking to it. Also, trying to
shave or put on make-up with a shaky hand. Also, opening up my wallet to find it empty. I don't miss these things, do I?

Meditation for the Day

You were born with a spark of the Divine within you. It had been all but
smothered by the life you were living. That celestial fire has to be tended and fed so that it will grow eventually into a real desire to live the right way. By trying to do the will of God, you grow more and more in the new way of life. By thinking of God, praying to Him, and having communion with Him, you gradually grow more like Him. The way of your transformation from the material to the spiritual is the way of Divine Companionship.

Prayer for the Day

I pray that I may tend the spark of the Divine within me so that it will
grow. I pray that I may be gradually transformed from the old life to the new life.
