AA Thought for the Day

A Sick Man
Though we did not like their symptoms and the way these disturbed us, they, like ourselves,
were sick too. We asked God to help us show them the same tolerance, pity, and patience
that we would cheerfully grant a sick friend. When a person offended we said to ourselves,
"This is a sick man. How can I be helpful to him? God save me from being angry. Thy will be done."
- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 102
Thought to Ponder
What if I were caring rather than judgmental?
AA-related 'Alconym'

Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Grateful to serve,
