For years I believed in a punishing God
and blamed Him for my misery.
I have learned that I must lay down the "weapons" of self
in order to pick up the "tools" of the AA program.
I do not struggle with the program
because it is a gift
and I have never struggled when receiving a gift.
If I sometimes keep on struggling,
it is because I'm still hanging onto my old ideas
and ". . . the results are nil."

Thought to Ponder....

Every day is a gift.
That is why we call it the present.
