Sept. 25, 2024 - Readings in Recovery: Step by Step

 

Step by Step

Wednesday, Sept. 25, 2024

Todayaccept myself first in starting to change the things I can — and must. And to change myself, I need the courage and brute honesty to see myself as I really am and not as I want myself and others to see. If I can be strong and honest enough to see in myself what must go and what can be kept, I have to accept the good and bad before I know how to begin the work of moving forward. But if the bad out-weighs the good, I can keep the good as a building block to tear away the bad. If, on the other hand, I accept myself with no improvements needed, I’ve lied to myself. Today, I pray for the courage to change the things I can — me. And our common journey continues. Step by step. — Chris M., 2024
