~SPIRITUAL NOT RELIGIOUS~ A DAY AT A TIME

08/04 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
One of the best ways to get out of the self-pity trap is to do some "instant bookkeeping."  For every entry of misery on the debit side of our ledger, we can surely find a blessing to mark on the credit side:  the health we enjoy, the illnesses we don't have, the friends who love us and who allow us to love them, a clean and sober 24 hours, a good day's work.  If we but try, we can easily list a whole string of credits that will far outweigh the debit entries which cause self-pity.  IS MY EMOTIONAL BALANCE ON THE CREDIT SIDE TODAY?

TODAY I PRAY
May I learn to sort out my debits and credits, and add it all up.  May I list my several blessings on the credit side.  May my ledger show me, when all is totaled, a fat fund of good things to draw on.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
I have blessings in my savings.
