AA Thought for the Day

Only By Action
Like all the remaining Steps, Step Three calls for affirmative action,
for it is only by action that we can cut away the self-will which has
always blocked the entry of God—or, if you like, a Higher Power—into
our lives. Faith, to be sure, is necessary, but faith alone can avail nothing.
We can have faith, yet keep God out of our lives.
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Step Three) p. 34
Thought to Ponder . . .
Willpower ... our will-ingness to use a Higher Power.
