JUST FOR TODAY! -- Two Rules
From "The Three Legacies of AA:"
"Other societies have to have law and
force and sanction and punishment, administered by
authorized people. Happily for us, we found that we
need no human authority whatever. We have two
authorities which are far more effective. One is
benign, the other malign. There is God, our Father, who
very simply says, 'I am waiting for you to do my will.'
The other authority is named John Barleycorn [alcohol],
and he says, 'You had better do God's will or I will
kill you.'"
c. 1957, Alcoholics Anonymous Comes of
Age, page 105

Just for Today -- A Daily Devotional
**********************************
God’s
rules are the rules that enable us to live fully on this
earth, and at the same time preparing us for Heaven.
His Word is true and that Word was made flesh and came
to earth – Jesus.
Jesus’ way is easy -- He is the
instrument of our recovery -- All we have to do is
humble ourselves and call on His name. There is nothing
to fear but fear itself as the famous quote goes. Don’t
waste time call on the Lord – ask His direction – He is
waiting. He will give you rest.
“At
that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of
heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things
from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little
children. Yes, Father, for this was your good
pleasure. "All things have been committed to me by my
Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no
one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom
the Son chooses to reveal him. "Come to me, all you who
are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take
my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and
humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." -- Matthew
11: 25-30

”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”

You
