DAILY REFLECTIONS

1) Where humility had formerly stood for a forced feeding on humble pie it now begins to mean the nourishing ingredient which can give us serenity.

-12 & 12, p.74

 Instead of trying to run away from my pain and wish my problems away, I can pray for humility! Humility will heal the pain. Humility will take me out of myself. Humility, that strength granted me by that “power greater than myself,” is mine for the asking! Humility will bring balance back into my life. Humility will allow me to accept my humanness joyously.

IN GODS CARE

2)Each time we sense the possibility of a new direction in our lives, we are being given a chance to grow.

-The Promise of a New Day, May 11

Change is the one constant in our life and yet it causes us the most unrest. We forget that change is growth and is good; it ensures our emotional and spiritual evolution. It promises us the blessings that are ours to collect on this special journey through life.

3)After all, our problems were of our own making. Bottles were only a symbol. Besides, we have stopped fighting anybody or anything. We have to!

FORGIVING AND MOVING ON

4) Today I will not give my power away to someone else by being afraid of them. 

I give others the power to tell me how I feel about myself. I do this so regularly, in so many ways that I am hardly aware I am doing it.

 I remind myself today that I am in this life to learn my own lessons, not to turn myself inside out in order to get other people’s approval
