A.A. Thought for the Day

How good a sponsor am I? When I bring new members to a meeting, do
I feel that my responsibility has ended? Or do I make it my job to
stay with them until they have either become good members of A.A.
or have found another sponsor? If they don't show up for a meeting,
do I say to myself. "Well, they've had it put up to them, so if
they don't want it, there's nothing more I can do"? Or do I look
them up and find out whether there is a reason for their absences
or that they don't want A.A.? Do I go out of my way to find out if
there is anything more I can do to help? Am I a good sponsor?

Meditation for the Day

"First be reconciled to your brother and then come and offer your
gift to God." First I must get right with other people and then I
can get right with God. if I hold a resentment against someone,
which I find it very difficult to overcome, I should try to put
something else constructive into my mind. I should pray for the
one against whom I hold the resentment. I should put that person
in God's hands and let God show him or her the way to live. "if a
man say: 'I love God' and hateth his brother, he is a liar, for he
that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God
whom he hath not seen?"

Prayer for the Day

I pray that I may see something good in every person, even one I
dislike, and that I may let God develop the good in that person.
