Step by Step
Friday, Feb. 15, 2013
Today, I carry from yesterday into this current 24 Hours the gratitude for all that has been given me by the Program and sobriety. But I can claim a renewed faith because gratitude, if sincere and unselfish, DOES yield the fruits of humility, awakening and serenity - all that is promised in the Program. But in having my gratitude rewarded in an expected way, pray that my faith in my Higher Power and the Program be strengthened and its power undiminished by time or human follies of greed, selfishness, a demand for more. Today, the gratitude of yesterday has evolved into a faith that, when conveyed without expectation of something in return, when sincere and when humble, can and does yield dividends of unexpected payoffs. Today, my faith has been awakened. And our common journey continues. Step by step. - Chris M., 2013
