A DAY AT A TIME

REFLECTION FOR THE DAY

Why don't I spend part of today thinking abut my assets, rather than my liabilities?  Why not think about victories, instead of defeats -- about the ways in which I am gentle and kind?  It's always been my tendency to fall into a sort of cynical self-hypnosis, putting derogatory labels on practically everything I've done, said or felt.  Just for today, I'll spend a quiet half hour trying to gain a more positive perspective on my life.  Do I have the courage to change the things I can?

 

TODAY I PRAY

Through quietness and a reassessment of myself, may I develop a more positive attitude.  If I am a child of God, created in His image, there must be goodness in me.  I will think about that goodness, and the ways it manifests itself.  I will stop putting myself down, even in my secret thoughts.  I will respect what is God's.  I will respect myself.

 

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

Self-respect is respect of God.

 

God,

Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change.

The Courage to change the things I can.

And the wisdom to know the difference.

~Amen

It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end.  ~Ursula K. LeGuin
