AA Thought for the Day
(courtesy AAOnline.net)

March 2, 2007

A New Dimension

Beaten into complete defeat by alcohol,
confronted by the living proof of defeat,
and surrounded by those who can speak to us from the heart,
we have finally surrendered.
And then, paradoxically, we have found ourselves
in a new dimension,
the real world of spirit and of faith.
Enough willingness, enough open-mindedness
-- and there it is!
c. 1988 The AA Grapevine, Inc., The Language of the Heart, p. 246




Thought to Ponder . . .

A new world came into view.




AA-related 'Alconym' . . .

H O W = Honesty, Open-mindedness, Willingness.

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

Blessings in sobriety to all,
In love and service,
