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

Dependence
He clamors for this or that, claiming he cannot master alcohol until his material needs
are cared for. Nonsense. Some of us have taken very hard knocks to learn this truth:
Job or no job—wife or no wife—we simply do not stop drinking so long as we place
dependence upon other people ahead of dependence on God.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (Working With Others) p. 98
Thought to Ponder
In AA we don't carry the alcoholic; we carry the message.
AA-related 'Alconym'
F R O G = Fully Rely On God.
Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Grateful to serve,
