AA Thought for the Day

April 25, 2008

Worry

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....

Remove the worry from your mind
Remove the anger from your heart
Give a lot
Expect little
Keep it simple.
