AA Thought for the Day

Many shortcomings tempt me daily;
therefore, I also have daily opportunities
to become aware of them.
In one form or another, many of my character defects
appear daily: self-condemnation, anger,
running away, being prideful, wanting to get even,
or acting out of grandiosity.
Attempting half measure to eliminate defects
merely paralyzes my efforts to change.
It is only when I ask God for help,
with complete abandon,
that I become willing -- and able -- to change.

Thought to Ponder....

If I want God to remove my character defects,
I'll have to stop doing them.
