Monday, October 21, 2013 You are reading from the book Each Day a New Beginning The strength of the drive determines the force required to suppress it. —Mary Jane Sherfey We are all struggling to succeed. And each day of our lives well be confronted with major or minor adversities that might well interfere with our success. Adversities dont have to hinder us, however. They can strengthen us, if we incorporate them as opportunities for growth. For many of us, the ability to handle adversity is a fairly recent phenomenon. And not always can we do it securely and with ease. But we are coming to believe that a power greater than ourselves is at hand and will guarantee us all the strength well ever need. Knowing that action is always possible, that passive acceptance of any condition need never be necessary are unconditional gifts of living the Twelve Step program. Our path forward is as certain as our commitment to it, our belief in the strength of the program, and our faith that all is well even when times are troubled. No one ever promised that our new way of life would be always easy. But we have been promised that well arrive at our proper destination if we do the footwork and let God do the navigating. Success is at hand. I will apply what Im learning, and Ill meet it.
