We Are Enough

 We ARE enough…

 I don’t know about you, but sometimes this magic magnifying mind of mine tries to tell me things that just are not true. 

It especially likes to try to convince me that I am not worthy and not “good enough” for this or that. It loves to try to get me to believe the illusion that I am nothing and have nothing to offer others!  

Thank goodness for AA, the 12 Steps, and God’s Word. Through the fellowship of AA, CONSTANTLY working the 12 Steps, and being in God’s Word daily I know that what my mind wants me to believe is false and that I need not let it run my thoughts and actions. 

I am nowhere near perfect, but I can help others!  

We all matter and each of us has the ability to share and help another! 

Give what you got. Go with what you have and make your best effort. 

If you are truly seeking God's will and your motives are of His spirit you will be amazed...

"we did because we honestly wanted to, and were willing to make the effort" Big Book pg. 26

 Lord let us look to seek Your will and give our best efforts with what we have instead of allowing our self-will to delude us to thinking we can't, AMEN.   

"Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed them, and broke them, and kept giving them to the disciples to set before the people.  And they all ate and were satisfied; and the broken pieces which they had left over were picked up, twelve baskets full."   Luke 9: 16-17

Have a blessed day Y’all!

Serving Sets Your Free

We remain free through serving others… 

This is an odd concept, yet for those of us who have experienced serving someone or something out of the kindness of our hearts with no expectation of return, get it. 

Think about it for a moment. 

Every day we naturally help, assist, or give a hand to someone or something. 

From parents caring for their children’s needs to yielding the right of way to another while we walk or drive, we are instinctually serving. 

It’s part of our nature. 

The Spiritual principle supporting this is the fact that through serving others, we are humbling ourselves to put others needs before our wants. 

The feeling you get is immeasurable when you do something for someone who can never pay you back. 

Helping others, does in fact, help ourselves…

“Helping others is the foundation stone” Big Book pg. 97 

Lord, let us exercise and grow our freedom through helping others, AMEN. 

“For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.” Galatians 5:13 

Have a blessed day Y'all!

Leading By Example

 Leading by example...

It seems to be an American cultural norm that we all must "make it to the top" of whatever work or career path we are on. 

The media and marketing that we are exposed to on all fronts seems to equate success with clothes, cars, and other material trappings far above what most of us can honestly afford. 

“More is Better!” seems to be the subliminal message of success. 

The truth is that more is not better. 

While we need to support ourselves and our families, true success comes from becoming great stewards of what we are given and how we support and serve those around us. 

Jesus came to serve, not be served. 

He came to show us that there is eternal life through Him. 

Our faith in God grows when we learn the truth in His word and become in tune to those people, places, things, and situations He puts in our lives...

Check your experience...

"How can I best serve Thee? Thy will (not mine) be done." Big Book pg. 85 

Lord, let us lead by serving and let us measure our success through our stewardship of the blessings you give us, AMEN.   

"But the greatest among you shall be your servant. Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted." Matthew 23: 11-12 

Have a blessed day Y’all!
