AA Thought for the Day

September 20, 2004

Power

I need power each day, because I get weary.
But with AA as my structure
and God as my source of strength,
I can face life without taking a drink.
I don't have to stare out my window in total despair any more.
The ocean and the sun and the trees
and all the fantastic beauty that God created
have finally become very real to me.
I crave and need the presence of nature.
But I must also bear in mind that it is the spirit within me,
which comes from God,
that is going to be that healing force.
I can turn to it wherever I am.
