AA Thought for the Day

Our Will
It is when we try to make our will conform with God's that we begin to use it rightly.
To all of us, this was a most wonderful revelation.   
Our whole trouble had been the misuse of willpower. We had tried to bombard our problems
with it instead of attempting to bring it into agreement with God's intention for us.

- 12 Steps & 12 Traditions, p. 40

Thought to Ponder . . .
Willpower ... our will-ingness to use a Higher Power.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
S W A T  =  Surrender, Willingness, Action, Trust.

 
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 grateful service,
