A Prayer & Some Thoughts - May
May 1
Prayer for Guidance Lord, I have a hard time deciding what to do. I am afraid to make the wrong decision, and this torments me greatly. Therefore, I turn to you and ask for your help. Show me your will in this decision. Give me peace of mind in the next steps! I seek your will every day as long as I live the life you give me. I know you will open the doors that need to be opened and you will close the ones that need to be closed. I go boldly, knowing that you are going with me! Amen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Thought Today, I have more peace and contentment. Life has fallen into place. The pieces of the jigsaw puzzle have found their correct position. Life is whole, all in one piece. I am no longer cast around on every wind of circumstance or fancy. I am no longer a dry leaf cast up and away by the breeze. I have found my place of rest, my place where I belong. I am content. I do not vainly wish for things I cannot have. I have "the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference." So ............ Have I found contentment in A.A.? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Contemplation Free Will Our freedom was lost while we were in the grip of alcohol. Once free of drink, we still realized that many things in life are controlled by other people and things, such as political and economic forces. If our employer closes the business, for example, we may have to choose less satisfactory employment. If a person threatens physical violence, we may have to go along with his or her wishes against our will. In all circumstances, our free will lies in the way we choose to think about what's happening. We always have the choice of turning to our Higher Power in thought, rather than reacting with fear and resentment. This is the only free will we can possibly have in the world, but it may be all we really need. If a difficult situation or problem arises, I'll remember that no human power could have relieved my alcoholism. This will remind me that the true source of power is always at hand. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sacrifice + Unity = Survival The unity, the effectiveness, and even the survival of A. A. will always depend upon our continued willingness to give up some of our personal ambitions and desires for the common safety and welfare. Just as sacrifice means survival for the individual alcoholic, so does sacrifice means unity and survival for the group and for A. A.'s entire Fellowship. As Bill Sees It Page 220 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Quote "Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it. " ~ Tori Amos
