If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

~AA saying

Before recovery, we never thought we had enough alcohol or other drugs. More would make us feel better, we thought. Sometimes, we are like this in our recovery too. We know we need to change, so we want to do it all right now. If we can just change ourselves totally, we’ll feel better, we think.

But we can’t change all at once. If we ask our Higher Power to take charge of our lives, we’ll have the chance to change a little at a time. We’ll learn the right things when we need to know them.
Prayer for the Day

Higher Power, help me fix what needs fixing today.
Action for the Day

I’ll make a list of what is broken. Which things on my list can I fix today?

Today's reading is from the book Keep it Simple, Daily Meditations for Twelve Step Beginnings and Renewal
