April 14

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

Freedom can mean the ability to say no to unproductive habits and unsatisfying ways of living. Freedom means surrendering my powerlessness to my Higher Power. It enables me to turn loved ones and troubles over to God's care. Freedom gives me the strength to say no when I want to, and need to. Freedom can mean to be in control of what I do with my thoughts, feelings, and reactions. In the same way, freedom allows me to say yes to positive and productive attitudes. In other words, I am free to be the best me I can be.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

Thank You for my freedom, which can be another word for self-discipline.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

Only the disciplined are free.

July 19

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

The healing which continues to come as a result of working the program is astounding. There is so much more to gain than just ridding ourselves of our addictions and compulsions. As I am willing to be open and honest and reach out for support, and as I am willing to go through some very painful times, my sense of freedom and aliveness continues to expand. This freedom and aliveness are wonderful gifts -- gifts for which I am very grateful.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

May I not be willing to settle for only ridding myself of my addictions and compulsions. May I have the courage to continue expanding and becoming all You have created me to be.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

The painful times are worthwhile when I can look back and see how much love I have been able to let into my life.
