Twenty-Four Hours a Day
Friday, April 4, 2008
 
Thought for the Day
When I came into AA, I found men and women who had been through the same things I had been though. But now they were thinking more about how they could help others than they were about themselves. They were a lot more unselfish than I ever was. By coming to meetings and associating with them, I began to think a little less about myself and a little more about other people. I also learned that I didn't have to depend on myself alone to get out of the mess I was in. I could get a greater strength than my own. Am I now depending less on myself and more on God?
 
Meditation for the Day
You cannot help others unless you understand the person you are trying to help. To understand the problems and temptations of others, you must have been through them yourself. You must do all you can to understand others. You must study their backgrounds, their likes and dislikes, their reactions and their prejudices. When you see their weaknesses, do not confront the preson with them. Share your own weaknesses, sins and temptations and let other people find their own convictions.
 
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may serve as a channel for God's power to come into the lives of others. I pray that I may try to understand them.
