Patience Prayer Dear God, I pray that I am patient every moment of this day with myself and with everyone around me. I am patient in traffic. I am patient in the workplace and with my co-workers. I am patient with the world when I hear the news on radio or TV. I am patient at home with my spouse and loved ones. I am a patient person, because I have a patient God. God is patient with me. Therefore, I am patient with all those around me. Amen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Thought Recovery is a process. The Twelve Steps provide the foundation to support our growth as healthy, productive men and women. Each Step must be carefully and honestly worked, or the whole foundation will be weakened Not only can we discover who we are now, but also we can change, nurture those traits that we favor, diminish those that attract trouble. My actions today are the key. They tell who I am at this moment. Who I become is up to me. I will work each Step and reflect before I move ahead. The strength of my foundation depends on it. So ............ I am building my foundation? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Contemplation Spiritual Growth In our spiritual growth, one of our movements is from passive to active, from helpless to responsive. Our Higher Power speaks to us in a quiet, subtle voice, which can easily be ignored until we learn to listen. It takes courage to listen to this inner voice. When we listen, we develop a relationship that is a strong force moving us into recovery. We are still powerless over many things, but we can make active choices in how we will grow and how we will respond. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Understanding & Approval The less people tolerated us, the more we withdrew from society, from life itself. As we became subjects of King Alcohol, shivering denizens of his mad realm, the chilling vapor that is loneliness settled down. It thickened, ever becoming blacker. Some of us sought out sordid places, hoping to find understanding companionship and approval. Momentarily we did - then would come oblivion and the awful awakening to face the hideous Four Horsemen - Terror, Bewilderment, Frustration, Despair. Unhappy drinkers who read this page will understand! Alcoholics Anonymous Page 151 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just a Quote “If a fellow isn’t thankful for what he’s got, he isn’t likely to be thankful for what he’s going to get.” ~~ Frank A. Clark
