Twenty-Four Hours A Day
In A.A., we must surrender, give up, admit that we’re
helpless. We surrender our lives to God and ask Him for
help. When He knows that we’re ready, He gives us
by His grace the free gift of sobriety. And we can’t take
any credit for having stopped drinking, because we didn’t
do it by our own willpower. There’s no place for pride or
boasting. We can only be grateful to God for doing for us
what we could never do for ourselves. Do I believe that
God has made me a free gift of the strength to stay sober?
Meditation For The Day…
I must work for God, with God and through God’s help. By
doing all I can to bring about a true fellowship of human beings,
I am working for God. I am also working with God, because
this is the way God works, and He is with me when I am
doing such work. I cannot do good work, however, without
God’s help. In the final analysis, it is through the
grace of God that any real change in human personality
takes place. I have to rely on God’s power and anything
I accomplish is through His help.
Prayer For The Day
I pray that I may work for God and with God. I pray that
I may be used to change human personalities through
God’s help.
