Reflection for the Day
“The central characteristic of the spiritual experience,” wrote AA cofounder Bill W., “is that it gives the recipient a new and better motivation out of all proportion to any process of discipline, belief, or faith. These experiences cannot make us whole at once; they are a rebirth to a fresh and certain opportunity.” Do I see my assets as God’s gifts, which have been in part matched by an increasing willingness on my part to find and do His will for me?
Today I Pray
I pray for the wholeness of purpose that can come only through spiritual experience. No amount of intellectual theory, pep-talking to myself, disciplined deprivation, “doing it for” somebody else can accomplish the same results. May I pray for spiritual enlightenment, not only in order to recover, but for itself.
Today I Will Remember
Total motivation through spiritual wholeness.
