Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Seeking strength from others prevents us from finding our own strength. — Georgette Vickstrom
The principles of this program, the friends we have made here, our sponsors, and the contact we have with an ever-available Higher Power afford us valuable strength. However, it’s important that we develop our own strength to complement what we look for in others.
Using the tools acquired in this program is a good beginning for cultivating personal strength. It’s like growing a garden. We need to tend it daily, nurturing it, discarding the unproductive behaviors like weeds. When we do, we’ll discover that the seedlings we’re planting at every meeting are taking root and developing blossoms that signal positive growth.
I will be painstaking in nurturing my growth today. My strength will be there when I need it.
Hazelden Foundation
