AA Thought for the Day

Not-worrying

None of us has to understand God
or worry about things beyond our control.
We can indulge ourselves in the luxury of not-worrying.
Any of us can handle just one day;
all each of us has to try at is our own job, our own family life.
We don't have to try fixing up the whole world
or understanding what no theologian of any faith
has ever understood.
We simply stop messing in God's business. . .
When we stop messing and stop worrying,
we have turned our will and our lives
over to God (or Good)
as we understand (or don't understand) Him.

Thought to Ponder....

If worrying could fix it,
you probably don't have a problem.
