TWO Quotes for the Day

sorry friends.. I've procrastinated.. and didn't post like I should have.  Sooo here is yesterday and today's reading from...  A Day At A Time April 8 Reflection For the Day Time after time, we learn in The Program, newcomers try to keep to themselves "shoddy facts" about their lives.  Trying to avoid the humbling experience of the Fifth Step, they turn to a seemingly easier and softer way.  Almost invariably, they slip.  Having persevered with the rest of The Program, they then wonder why they fell.  The probable reason is they never completed their housecleaning.  They took inventory all right, but hung on to some of the worst items in stock.  HAVE I ADMITTED TO GOD, TO MYSELF, AND TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING THE EXACT NATURE OF MY WRONGS? Today I Pray That I may include all of the sleaziness of my past, my cruelities and my dishonesties, in a complete moral inventory of myself.  May I hold back nothing out of shame or pride, for the "exact nature" of my wrongs means just that - a thorough and exact recounting of past mistakes and character flaws.  We have been provided with an appropriate "dumping-ground."  May I use it as it was intended.  May all my throw-aways, the trash and outgrown costumes of the past, be foundation "fill" on which to build a new life. Today I Will Remember Trash can be a foundation for treasures. April 9 Reflection For The Day Faith is more than our greatest gift; it's sharing with others is our greatest responsibility.  May we of The Program continually seek the wisdom and the willingness by which we may well fulfill the immense trust which the Giver of all perfect gifts has placed in our hands.  IF YOU PRAY, WHY WORRY?  IF YOU WORRY, WHY PRAY? Today I Pray Our God is a might fortress, a bulwark who never fails us.  May we praise Him for our deliverance and for our protection.  He gives us the gift of faith to share.  May we pass it along to others as best we know how and in the loving spirit in which He gave it to us. Today I will Remember God will not fail us. Have a wonderful evening
