A Prayer & Some Thoughts - March
March 1
Positive Thinking Prayer Lord, I believe in the power of positive thinking, but lately I need your help to get there. Please fill me with faith, hope and optimism. Thank you for helping me to be genuinely positive. Amen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Thought What a load hangovers put on your shoulders! What terrible physical punishment we've all been through. The pounding headaches and jumpy nerves, the shakes and the jitters, the hot and cold sweats! When you come into A.A. and stop drinking, that terrible load of hangovers falls off your shoulders. What a load remorse puts on your shoulders! That terrible mental punishment we've all been through. Ashamed of the things you've said and done. Afraid to face people because of what they might think of you. Afraid of the consequences of what you did when you were drunk. What an awful beating the mind takes! When you come into A.A., that terrible load of remorse falls off your shoulders. So ........... Have I got rid of these loads of hangovers and remorse? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Contemplation Staying in the Present Often, one of our biggest questions is "What's going to happen?" We may ask this about our relationships, our career and our life. It is easy to tangle us up in worrisome thoughts. Worrying about what's going to happen blocks us from functioning effectively today. It keeps us from doing our best now. It blocks us from learning and mastering today's lessons. Staying in the now, doing our best, and participating fully today are all we need to do to assure ourselves that what's going to happen tomorrow will be for the best. Worrying about what's going to happen is a negative contribution to our future. Living in the here and now is ultimately the best thing we can do, not only for today, but also for tomorrow. It helps our relationships, our career and our life. I will remember that staying in the present is the best thing I can do for my future. I will focus on what's happening now instead of what's going to happen tomorrow. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Self-will I can recognize that I'm caught up in my will, when I desperately struggle to slam a square peg into a round hole. That's the time for me to back off and trust that God's will is far better than mine. The AA Grapevine, November, 2013 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Quote “Out of every crisis comes the chance to be reborn, to reconceive ourselves as individuals, to choose the kind of change that will help us to grow and to fulfill ourselves more completely.” ~ Nena O'Neill
