If we are painstaking about this phase of our development, we will be amazed before we are half way through.We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness.
We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it.
We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace.
No matter how far down the scale we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others.
That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear.
We will lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in our fellows.
Self-seeking will slip away.
Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change.
Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us.
We will intuitively know how to handle situations which used to baffle us.
We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves.
Are these extravagant promises? We think not.
They are being fulfilled among us – sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly.
They will always materialize if we work for them.
These promises are my favorite out of all of our readings. When you work the steps these promises do come true. 🙂
It is on these promises alone that I fight my demons.If it doesn’t come swiftly it will be more Precious .
The promises are my favorite reading also.. Stay around until the miracle happens …my life is now worth living … Not having to pick up a drink today…and every 24 hours I’m sober.. Is a miracle!! Go to meetings… Get a sponsor … And don’t pick up a drink one day at a time
So true chloeb one day at a time. My life is so happy I’m coming on July 9th I will be clean 4 years I have tears of joy saying this.!!!!!!!
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour – 1 Peter 5:8
