AA Thought for the Day

Devious Friends

I have long ago replaced those two devious friends,
alcohol and denial,
because they betrayed me.
I have a new friend I call my Higher Power,
and He will never betray me.
His divine providence has a game plan for me.
When bad things happen,
good will ultimately come out of it.
I don't have to understand why bad times come to all of us.
I understand that God can see over the mountain
and I cannot.
