AA Thought for the Day

Resentments
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, (How It Works) p. 67
Thought to Ponder

Grateful to serve,
