~SPIRITUAL~ A DAY AT A TIME
09/18
REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
In every story we hear from others in The Program, pain has been the price of admission into a new life. But our admission price purchased far more than we expected. It led us to a degree of humility, which we soon discovered to be a healer of pain. And, in time, we began to fear pain less -- and desire humility more than ever. AM I LEARNING TO "SIT LOOSELY IN THE SADDLE" -- MAKING THE MOST OF WHAT COMES AND THE LEAST OF WHAT GOES?
TODAY I PRAY
If God's plan for us is spiritual growth, a closer alliance with His principles of what is good and what is true, then may I believe that all my experiences have added up to a new and improved me. May I not fear the lessons of pain. May I know, that I must continue to grow through pain, as well as joy.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
I hurt; therefore, I am.
