AA Thoughts For The Day
*~*~*~*^Twenty Four Hours A Day^*~*~*~*
A.A. Thought for the Day
Alcoholism is a progressive illness. We go through the three stages of social drinking, trouble drinking, and merry-go-round drinking. We land in hospitals and jails. We eventually lose our homes, our families, and our self-respect. Yes, alcoholism is a progressive illness and there are only three ends to it-the insane asylum, the morgue, or total abstinence. Will I choose not to take the first drink?
Meditation for the Day
You not only can live a new life but you also can grow in grace
and power and beauty. Reach ever forward and upward after the
things of the spirit. In the animal world, the very form of an
animal changes to enable it to reach that upon which it delights
to feed. Your whole character changes as you reach upward for the things of the spirit-for beauty, for love, for honesty, for purity,
and for unselfishness. Reaching after these things of the spirit,
your whole nature becomes changed so that you can best receive and delight in the wonders of the abundant life.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may reach forward and upward. I pray that my character may be changed by this reaching upward for the things of the spirit.
