October 10 in The Little Blue Book ONE DAY at a TIME in AL-ANON
October 10 in The Little Blue Book ONE DAY at a TIME in AL-ANON:
Without faith in a power greater than myself, I am like a storm-tossed ship without a rudder. I am flung from one trouble to another; however bravely I may battle the elements, my own strength and wisdom are not enough.
All of us need something to cling to with absolute confidence. If I have been disillusioned by disappointments, or have been let down by someone I trusted, it makes me feel as though I were alone and vulnerable in a hostile world.
I will not deprive myself of God’s help and guidance. I see it at work in Al-Anon as we share knowledge, courage and hope with each other. Confidence and dignity are restored to us by the knowledge that we are God’s children.
TODAY’S REMINDER
If my faith has been dimmed by disappointment, I can begin to regain it by clinging to a spiritual idea like the one expressed in the serenity Prayer. This living philosophy will give me a secure foundation of faith.
“For we walk by faith, not by sight…” Second Corinthians
