December 10th, One Day At A Time We can ony work this program one day at a time. Tomorrow's abstinence will take care of itself if we are abstinent today. It is when we look too far ahead that we become troubled and lose our confidence. Whatever happens, we can cope with it one day at a time. Worrying about the possiblity of being hungry next week destroys today's serenity. Projecting ourselves into future tasks produces unneccessary tension. Wondering how someone may react to something we may say tomorrow causes needless anxiety and robs us of the here and now. Our Higher Power is with us now, today. by learing to know Him in the present, we grow in faith that He will be with us in the future. He gives us the strength to maintain our abstinence today, and that is the best thing we can possibly do for ourselves. One day at a time, we walk out of darkness into light. Thank You for this day.
