AA Thought for the Day

July 28, 2005

Service

As time passes in AA, we hear or read much about love;
love is as simple as becoming always available.
Love is a sincere interest in others.
Love is a desire to be of service.
Love is an ability to understand others
and their problems. . .
When we love, we will see in others
what we wish to have in ourselves.
We will know that love is a privilege given to us by God.
When we love, we will never be bored with life
or our program.
It is what impels us to be active
and to get involved in service.
