~SPIRITUAL~ A DAY AT A TIME
01/12 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
When I sit quietly and compare my life today with the way it used to be, the difference is almost beyond belief. But things aren't always rosy; some days are a lot better than others. I tend to accept the bad days more easily on an intellectual level than I do emotionally, or at gut-level. There are no part answers, but part of the solution surely liesin a constant effort to practice all of the Twelve Steps. DO I ACCEPT THE FACT THAT MY HIGHER POWER WILL NEVER GIVE ME MORE THAN I CAN HANDLE -- ONE DAY AT A TIME?
TODAY I PRAY
That I may receive strength in the knowledge that God never gives us more than we can bear, that I can always, somehow, endure present paid, whereas the trials of a lifetime, condensed into one disastrous moment, would surely overcome me. Thanks be to God for giving us only those tribulations which are in proportion to our strength, never destroying us in our frailty. May I remember that fortitude grows our of suffering.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Present pain is endurable.
