Many resolutions will be posted tomorrow and while it’s encouraging to see so many intent on change, we need to remember that change begins inside of us. 


Without our change of heart, mind, and soul, nothing really changes. 


The great news is that we are each capable of change and that there is a plan for success waiting for us if we would only allow ourselves to commit to Christ… 


Check your experience.. 


“We had to ask ourselves why we shouldn't apply to our human problems this same readiness to change our point of view.” Big Book pg 52 


Lord let us look inside our hearts to see the changes we need and to turn our will and our lives over to You in order to see the plan You have for us, AMEN.  


"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11 


Have a Safe New Year’s Eve y’all!

Looking in the mirror… 

2025 is almost here and for many of us it’s a time for fresh starts and healthy changes. 

While these are noble goals based on good thoughts and great intentions, it seems that no matter where we go or what we do differently, the same person inside of us is still involved! 

Now maybe it’s different for you, but I have learned that until I look inside myself to see what is fueling my actions, attitudes, and behaviors, that new thing I attempt to do will not bring new results UNLESS I first change those things inside of me that drive my thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors. 

Until I can see that these things inside of me that drive my choices need to change,.. nothing will change!...

Check your experience… 

“Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.” Big Book pg. 59 

Lord, let us first rid ourselves of the character defects that drive our poor choices then we can seek Your will to enjoy the benefit of healthy change, AMEN

“For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind.” James 3:16 

Have a blessed day y’all!

Charity begins at home...

This is one of the best thought tools I have come to rely on over the years. 

The version I learned was phrased like this; "You can't keep it unless you give it away."

It's an action thought that has never failed me since I began my walk with Christ and in sobriety. 

Unless I am willing to help another, I am not in a position to spiritually receive the gifts the Lord blesses me with. 

Now this doesn't mean we should give away everything we have, or start a crusade to end world homelessness,..

but it does mean that each day we should open the eyes of our hearts to see how we can best be of service to someone around us...

Check your experience. ...

"Helping others is the foundation stone" Big Book pg. 97. 

 Lord, please open the eyes of our heart daily to see how we can best serve another, AMEN.  

"that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27 

 Have a blessed day y’all!
