If Nothing Changes...

If nothing changes then nothing changes…

None of us are perfect. We each have things that need our attention and cannot be fixed without our participation and ownership. 

We need to own our challenges, struggles, and shortcomings. 

The good news is that God can and will help us if we stay willing and provide the effort! 

When He can see our efforts fueled by our motivation to change, then He can heal us! 

Ask yourself if you are participating in your own improvement and as always… 

check your experience… 

"..we did because we honestly wanted to, and were willing to make the effort." Big Book pg 22. 

Lord fill our hearts with the desire to change and the drive to provide the needed efforts, AMEN.

Happiness Source

Happiness comes from…. 

Now I know this is not your experience, but my self-will is greedy for things that my delusional head likes for me to think that I need. 

For me, my self-will is greedy for attention and for worldly things. 

It likes me to think that in order to be happy I need a Harley, a Corvette, a bigger house, and on and on it goes. 

While these things are nice, my happiness does NOT depend on them. 

The minute it does, then I have a major problem. 

Luckily, I was blessed with the opportunity to find my life in AA through the Big Book and the 12 Steps, and they led me back to the Lord who has given me a life better than my wildest dreams filled with a marriage, a family, ministry, friends, and more blessings and happiness than I ever deserved. 

I find that I need to check my motives and efforts to measure my happiness. 

When I am able to do this I see that my happiness does not come from things, rather it comes from my relationship with God and those wonderful folks in my life. 

What do you measure your happiness with?.. 

Check your experience...

"Selfishness-self-centeredness! That, we think, is the root of our troubles. Driven by a hundred forms of fear, self-delusion, self-seeking, and self-pity,..." Big Book pg 62. 

Lord, please remove the selfish thoughts driven by our self-centered fear, pride, and greed that block our hearts from Your will and Spirit, AMEN. 

"Then He said to them, Beware, and be on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one has an abundance does his life consist of his possessions." Luke 12:15 

Have a blessed day y’all!

If the Shoe Isn't Fitting

If the shoe doesn’t fit... try another size and style!.. 

Have you ever found yourself feeling like the square peg trying to fit into the round hole? 

Perhaps it’s different for you, but there are times where I need to get along with a person, or fit into a particular place, situation, or thing and it is just not working out smoothly. 

I have learned that when I adjust my attitude, approach, outlook, expectation, or behavior, I can find the tools that work for me that allow me to fit in. 

Kind of like a different show size and style. 

We can have the same challenges internally with our spiritual life. 

Sometimes what looks good on the outside doesn’t quite fit with our feelings inside. 

When I experience this, I park my self-will and seek God’s will and I find that things just go better…

Check your experience… 

“Our real purpose is to fit ourselves to be of maximum service to God and the people about us.” Big Book pg 77 

Lord, let us look to use the spiritual tools and gifts you have given us to handle our daily walk, AMEN.

 “Then Saul dressed David in his own tunic. He put a coat of armor on him and a bronze helmet on his head. David fastened on his sword over the tunic and tried walking around, because he was not used to them. “I cannot go in these,” he said to Saul, “because I am not used to them.” So he took them off.” 1 Samuel 17: 38-39 

 Have a blessed day Y’all!
