DAILY REFLECTIONS
1) Once we have placed the key of willingness in the lock and have the door ever so slightly open, we find that we can always open it some more.

WALK IN DRY PLACES
2) When we don’t return things to their proper place, we lose them or waste hours looking for them. We may bungle a job simply because we were too lazy to look up the right information or to read directions. That’s why “First things First” is much more than just a slogan. It’s actually a principle for living, a guide that tells us there is an orderly approach to everything. If we can find that order without becoming slavishly compulsive about it, we’ll find that it simplifies lots of things later on.
FATHER LEO
3) My responsibility in recovery is for my life. I cannot change other people, events or relationships – I can only change me. I am not God. Each time I forget this fact, I risk another hurt. Help me to aspire for ideals that are within my grasp.
4) “Troubles are often the tools by which God fashions us for better things.”
-Henry Ward Beecher
