AA Thought for the Day

Responsibilities
Remember, AA is not going to preserve itself automatically.
What are we, each one of us, doing with the gift of sobriety, so freely and lovingly given?
Will we squander our magnificent inheritance?  Perhaps each one of us should hold on to these thoughts:
"Keep me mindful of the responsibilities that accompany the blessings of freedom.
The only time that wrong can prevail is when good people do nothing."
- The Home Group: Heartbeat of AA, p. 60

Thought to Ponder . . .
I am responsible for the effort -- not the outcome.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
B E S T = Been Enjoying Sobriety Today?

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,
