Default I worked my program last night

I've been sitting on my laurels. I haven't been doing a daily 10th step. I haven't been improving my contact with God. I haven't been reading program literature DAILY. I haven't been journaling.

I know better. I know that doing all those things are what keep me in recovery.

Last night I took action. I spent time just listening to God. I read in For Today and my spiritual book. I did a 10th step on the day-- and wow, it really opened my eyes. Today, I'm committing to picking up a pencil and doing some writing. It only works if I work it. I need to be vigilant in going to any lengths to stay in recovery.

Thank you God for the reminders at meetings of what I need to do.

"It only works if I work it."

That's really inspiring... going in my quotebook. ^_^
And I'm glad for your new strength.
