Daily Reprieve for Tuesday July 30, 2024 From Waynesville, NC |

“Though my sobriety had
come easy, the growing up business hadn’t. Both emotional and
spiritual growth have always been mighty difficult for me.” ~ Bill W., September 1957 We spend our time searching
for security and hate it when we get it. -John Steinbeck Our concern must be to live
while we’re alive --to release our inner
selves from the spiritual death that comes with living
behind a façade designed to conform to
external definitions of who and what we are. -Elisabeth Kuebler- Ross God is the essence of
life. Always present. Always knowing. Forever giving us exactly
what we need, exactly when we need it. Unfortunately, far too many
of us believe that God only provides for
the good people, because God likes them for
being good. And, if we believe that we
have not always been good, chances are we also believe
that God is not always blessing us. Nothing could be further
from the truth! God is the grace in which
we live. -Iyanla Vanzant |

Big Book Quote Henry Ford once made
a wise remark to the effect that experience is the thing of supreme value in
life. That is true only if one is willing to turn the past to good account.
We grow by our willingness to face and rectify errors and convert them into
assets. The alcoholic's past thus becomes the principal asset of the family
and frequently it is almost the only one! P124 |

Daily Reflection GIVING BACK . . . he has struck
something better than gold. . . . He may not see at once that he
has barely scratched a limitless lode which will pay dividends
only if he mines it for the rest of his life and insists on
giving away the entire product. ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p.
129 My part of the Seventh
Tradition means so much more than just giving money to pay
for the coffee. It means being accepted for myself by
belonging to a group. For the first time I can be responsible,
because I have a choice. I can learn the principles of
working out problems in my daily life by getting involved
in the "business" of A.A. By being self-supporting, I can
give back to A.A. what A.A. gave to me! Giving back to A.A.
not only ensures my own sobriety, but allows me to
buy insurance that A.A. will be here for my grandchildren. |

Pot Luck Good morning. Our keynote is: “Pray to seek to love, comfort
and understand,…“. Today’s reading advocates
adjusting one’s attitude to focus on doing God‘s will
in the present while leaving the future to God. As long as I believed my
attitude to be my state of mind and how I felt, it was impossible to immediately adjust. The definition of “attitude“
that changed my life is, “angle of approach”. My angle of approach is not
what I think, feel or believe. It is how I behave toward something or
someone. When I define my attitude as
my behavior, rather than my thoughts, feelings and
beliefs, I am magically in immediate
control of my attitude, one stitch at a time. Regardless of my doubts, fears
and reluctance, when I behave as a person who
is confident that God has the future in hand, that is my attitude. When so behaving, I eventually get all the
benefits of having such an attitude, including being free to do the
best I can in the right now. I love you all. ~Don M.
