"I AM A MIRACLE"
When I came into A.A.,
was I a desperate person? Did I have a soul-sickness? Was I so sick of myself
and my way of living that I couldn't stand looking at myself in a mirror? Was I
ready for A.A.? Was I ready to try anything that would help me to get sober and
to get over my soul-sickness? Should I ever forget the condition I was in?
Meditation for the Day
In the New Year, I will
live one day at a time. I will make each day one of preparation for better
things ahead. I will not dwell on the past or the future, only on the
present. I will bury every fear of the future, all thoughts of unkindness and
bitterness, all my dislikes, my resentments, my sense of failure, my
disappointments in others and in myself, my gloom and my despondency. I will
leave all these things buried and go forward, in this New Year, into a new life.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that God will
guide me one day at a time in the New Year. I pray that for each day, God will
supply the wisdom and the strength that I need.
