~SPIRITUAL~ A DAY AT A TIME

03-15 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY

There have been days during my recovery when just about everything seemed bleak and even hopeless.  I allowed myself to become depressed and angry.  I see now that it doesn't matter what I think, and it doesn't matter how I feel.  It's what I do that counts.  So when I become anxious or upset, I try to get into action by going to meetings, participating, and working with others in The Program.  IF GOD SEEMS FAR AWAY, WHO MOVED?

TODAY I PRAY

May I not be immobilized by sadness or anger to the point of despair.  May I look for the roots of despair in my tangle of emotions, sort out the tangle, pull out the culprit feelings, acknowledge that they belong to me.  Only then can I get into gear, take action, begin to accomplish.  May I learn to make use of the energy generated by anger to strengthen my will and achieve my goals.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

To sort out my feelings.
