AA Thought for the Day - September 10, 2015

AA Thought for the Day
(courtesy AA-Alive.net)



Gratitude
Sometimes, I've lacked the discernment to be grateful, and I see this now. . .
Often in the past, my prayers for help have been answered in ways that I have not recognized as answers.
Indeed, I have cursed my fate instead of thanking God.
I have prayed and prayed, sometimes in desperation, but I haven't thanked Him as much as I've implored Him.
~ The AA Grapevine, September 1979

Thought to Ponder . . .
Gratitude has to be practiced.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
A S A P = Always Say A Prayer.

Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Blessings in sobriety to all,
In love and service,
