Thought for the Day

Strength comes from the fellowship you find when you come into A.A. Just being with men and women who have found the way out gives you a feeling of security. You listen to the speakers, you talk with other members, and you absorb the atmosphere of confidence and hope that you find in the place. Am I receiving strength from the fellowship with other A.A. members?

Meditation for the Day

God is with you, to bless and help you. His spirit is all around you. Waver not in your faith or in your prayers. All power is the Lord's. Say that to yourself often and steadily. Say it until your heart sings with joy for the safety and personal power that it means to you. Say it until the very force of the utterance drives back and puts to naught all the evils against you. Use it as a battle cry. All power is the Lord's. Then you will pass on to victory over all your sins and temptations, and you will begin to live a victorious life.

Prayer for the Day

I pray that with strength from God I may lead an abundant life. I pray that I may lead a life of victory.

"All power is the Lord's."

Funny, I just caught myself in charge...again...thinking "I" have the power.

Good reminder this evening...when I made that 3rd step decision, and every day that I say, "Thy Will Be Done"...that God has the power and he gives some to me sometimes...to do His will.

Silly me.

!

I recall an AA speaker saying, "God, you have all power and I have none. May I have some please?"



I love Sandy B.'s talk on Letting Go.

The first part of let go, let God.

It's hard to let go, and stop running the show!

Have a good night everyone.
