J is for Just for Today. Just for today, I choose not to use. The meditation book Just for Today has been a real tool for my recovery. It has always been a tool that I have used on my recovery road.
Just For Today
Just for today I will have a program. I may
not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will
save myself from two pests: hurry and
indecision.
Just for today I will have a quiet half hour
all by myself and relax. During this half
hour, sometime, I will try to get a better
perspective of my life.
Just for today I will I will be unafraid.
Especially I will not be afraid to notice
what is beautiful and to believe that as I
give to the world, so the world will give to
me.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
Lord make me an instrument of Thy
Peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow
love; where there is injury, pardon; where
there is doubt, faith; where is despair,
hope; where there is darkness, light; and
where there is sadness, joy.
O, Divine Master, grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled, as to
console.; to be understood, as to
understand; to be loved, as to love; for it is
in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning
that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that
we are born to eternal life.
