AA Thought for the Day
(courtesy AA-Alive.net)
February 7, 2022
The Closed Mind
It wasn't A.A, that had the closed mind, it was me. The minute I stopped
arguing, I could begin to see and feel. Right there, Step Two gently and
very gradually began to infiltrate my life. I can't say upon what occasion
or upon what day I came to believe in a Power greater than myself, but I
certainly have that belief now. To acquire it, I had only to stop fighting
and practice the rest of A.A.'s program as enthusiastically as I could.

Thought to Ponder
I saw, I felt, I believed.
