JUST FOR TODAY! -- Unconditional  

 

From "Getting out of the 'if' trap:"

 

"Alcoholism respects no ifs.  It does not go away, not for a week, for a day, or even for an hour, leaving us nonalcoholic and able to drink again on some special occasion or for some extraordinary reason -- not even if it is a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, or if a big sorrow hits us, or if it rains in Spain or the stars fall on Alabama.  Alcoholism is for us unconditional, with no dispensations available at any price."

 

c. 1975, Living Sober, page 63

Just for Today -- A Daily Devotional

**********************************

When an “if” statement comes into our world -- it likely means excuse.  Nothing can happen in our lives that would be any condition for us to use/drink.

 

The base of the program is complete abstinence from drugs and alcohol -- and no room for the if’s.  The good thing about unconditional is that it also applies to the love and acceptance of God and the group we are recovering with.  Two fine precepts –- unconditional love and unconditional abstinence.  Practicing these precepts assures our success.

 

Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.  Be merciful to those who doubt; snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear--hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh. -- Jude 1: 21-23

* As you make your requests known to the Lord, include:

·        greater personal discipline,

·        worldwide persecuted Christians,

·        Hedge of protection to our children

·        Blessings to our spouses

·        Godly men in Government

·        Rest and Peace to our pastors

·        Your activities for the day.

 

Love One Another

Stand Together

Fight this war, no matter the cost

Pray for our children

Turn our hearts toward heaven

Seek to be one nation under God.

God Bless and Guide You in your Christian Walk Today

 

“The Lord bless you and keep you,
the Lord make his face shine upon you
and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.”
-- Numbers 6:24-27

”Two are better than one, because they
have a good reward for their toil.
For if they fall, one will lift up the other;
but woe to one who is alone and falls
and does not have another to help”
-- Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

 

"Carry this message to other alcoholics! 

You can help when no one else can."
  -- c. 2001, Alcoholics Anonymous, page 89
