BIG BOOK QUOTE We, in our turn, sought the same escape with all the
desperation of drowning men. What seemed at first a flimsy reed, has proved
to be the loving and powerful hand of God. A new life has been given us or,
if you prefer, "a design for living" that really works. P28 |

12&12 Step Two - "Came to believe that a Power greater than
ourselves could restore us to sanity." Let’s look first at the case of the one who says he won’t
believe—the belligerent one. He is in a state of mind which can be described
only as savage. Hi whole philosophy of life, in which he so gloried, is
threatened. Its bad enough, he thinks, to admit alcohol has him down for
keeps. But now, still smarting from that admission, he is faced with
something really impossible. How he does cherish the thought, that man, risen
so majestically from a single cell in the primordial ooze, is the spearhead
of evolution and therefore the only god that his universe knows! Must he
renounce all this to save himself? p.25 |

Twenty-Four Hours
A.A. Thought For The Day I need the A.A. principles for the development of the buried life
within me. A.A. may be human in its organization, but it is Divine in its
purpose. The purpose is to point me toward God and a better life. Participating in the privilege of the movement, I shall share in
the responsibilities, taking it upon myself to carry my fair share of
the load, not grudgingly but joyfully. To the extent that I fail in my responsibilities, A.A. fails. To the extent I succeed, A.A. succeeds. Do I accept this as my A.A. credo? It means being grateful for all the wonderful things in the
universe and for all the blessings in your life. So praise God by being grateful and humble. Praise of this kind has more power to vanquish evil than has mere
resignation. The truly grateful and
humble person who is always praising God, is not tempted to do wrong. You will have a feeling of security because you know that fundamentally all is well. So look up to God and praise Him. I pray that I may humble because I know that I do not deserve
them.

DAILY
REFLECTIONS OUR PRIMARY PURPOSE The more A.A. sticks to its primary purpose,
the greater will be its helpful influence everywhere. A.A. COMES OF AGE, p. 109 It is with gratitude that I reflect on the
early days of our Fellowship and those wise and loving
"foresteppers" who proclaimed that we should not be diverted from
our primary purpose, that of carrying the message to the
alcoholic who still suffers. I desire to impart respect to those who labor
in the field of alcoholism, being ever mindful that A.A.
endorses no causes other than its own. I must remember that
A.A. has no monopoly on miracle-making and I remain
humbly grateful to a loving God who made A.A.
possible. |

POT LUCK Forgive I forgive and set myself free. When I
hold on to resentment or unforgiving thoughts, I remain bound to my pain.
Forgiveness is the key to my soul’s liberation. Freedom begins the moment I
choose to forgive, even if the process is ongoing. As I
forgive those who have hurt or betrayed me, I also ask forgiveness of those I
may have harmed, whether knowingly or unknowingly. Regardless
of past mistakes, I believe I and all others are worthy of forgiveness, love,
grace, and renewal. Today, I
begin again—open, free, and receptive to the infinite good that is mine on
the other side of forgiveness. Forgiveness has many benefits-mental,
emotional, and spiritual. Ultimately, it is a return to love. I
forgive and bless myself. The peace and grace that flow from my forgiveness
bless others. Forgive,
and you will be forgiven. -Luke 6:37 |
