ANONYMOUS GIFTS OF KINDNESS
As active alcoholics we were always looking for a handout
in one way or another.
"THE TWELVE TRADITIONS ILLUSTRATED," p. 14
The challenge of the Seventh Tradition is a personal challenge, reminding me to share and give of myself. Before sobriety the only thing I ever supported was my habit of drinking. Now my efforts are a smile, a kind word, and kindness.
I saw that I had to start carrying my own weight and allow my new friends to walk with me because, through the practice of the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, I've never had it so good.

Twenty Four Hours A Day 7/29/2014
*~*~*~*^Twenty Four Hours A Day^*~*~*~*
AA Thought for the Day
There are two days in every week about which we should not
worry, two days that should be kept from fear and
apprehension. One of these days is yesterday, with its
mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and
pains. Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. All
the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We
cannot undo a single act we performed. We cannot erase a
single word we said. Yesterday is gone beyond recall. Do I
still worry about what happened yesterday?
Meditation for the Day
"God will not suffer you to be tempted above what you are
able, but with the temptation He will also find a way of
escape, that you may be able to bear it." If you have enough
faith and trust in God, He will give you all the strength you
need to face every temptation and to overcome it. Nothing
will prove too hard for you to bear. You can face any
situation. "Be of good cheer. I have overcome the world."
You can overcome any temptation with God's help. So fear
nothing.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may face every situation without fear. I pray
that nothing will prove too hard for me to bear.
