Just For Today – Caring
From "Serving My Brother":
"…I frequently ask God to
help me watch over my thoughts and words, that they may
be the true and proper reflections of our program; to
focus my aspirations once again to seek His guidance; to
help me be truly kind and loving, helpful and healing,
yet always filled with humility, and free from any trace
of arrogance."

Devotional
**********************************
If we are
to teach and lead others in their recovery, we will be
held to a higher accountability to God. Therefore, we
should constantly seek God's power in our lives to make
sure our words and actions line up to His precepts. We
must always do so in humility and never see ourselves as
better than any one else.
No matter our walk of life, we are
equally addicted to our drug of choice and we are
equally struggling to walk in sobriety in this earthly
life. We should honestly care for our brothers and be
willing to die for our friends, as commanded by the
Lord.
I John 3:15-17 (New International
Version)
15Anyone
who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that
no murderer has eternal life in him.
16This
is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his
life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our
brothers.
17
If
anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in
need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be
in him?
STEP TWO: Is about the birth of faith in
us.
I believe that GOD, through Jesus Christ
and the Holy Spirit, will restore me to sanity.
“For it is GOD who works in you to will
and to act according to his good purpose.” --
Philippians 2:13.
STEP TWO PRAYER
God, I'm standing at the
turning point of my life right now.
I know in my heart that only you can
restore me to sanity.
I humbly ask that you remove all
twisted thought & addictive behavior from
me this day.
Heal my spirit & restore in me a clear
mind.
Give me your protection and
care as I abandon myself to you
and for me to give-up my old
ways
and forget my old ideas just
for today.
AMEN
