July 31

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

If I owed a debt and paid it in full, would I continue to pay that same debt? If I did, my sanity would be questioned. Yet I returned to my Higher Power again and again asking forgiveness for the same thing. By hanging on to my guilt, I was unable to be receptive to growth and healing. I no longer believe I have to condemn myself, even for not living up to my own reasonable expectations. Once I have made amends, I need to be willing to forgive myself.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

If I begin to hang on to guilt, remind me how defeating this behavior is.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

To hang on to guilt is to cop out.
