AA Thought for the Day

August 6, 2004

Surrender

When alcohol influenced every facet of my life . . .
when I came to realize that, by myself,
I could do nothing to overcome the power of alcohol,
I realized I had no recourse except surrender. . .
When I stopped fighting anybody or anything,
I started on the path to sobriety, serenity, and peace.

Thought to Ponder....

We surrender to win;
we give away to keep; we suffer to get well;
we die to live.
