Meditations on "Truth"

Audio for IT’S IN THE BOOK Members of Alcoholics Anonymous are encouraged to regularly read "The Big Book" which gives a helpful foundation for living sober.

When we admitted we were powerless over our dependencies and our lives had become unmanageable, we were in a sense, like the man who was robbed and beaten in the parable of the good Samaritan.

Sometimes we choose not to bless someone because we judge them as unworthy.

Some of us say we have hope in God, but what does that mean?

Tonight, many children put on costumes and go door-to-door “trick-or-treating.

An important character strength to develop is tolerance, which is being patient, understanding, and accepting of something different from what we are familiar with.

Many of us lost our true identity because we grew up in dysfunctional families and were forced to assume survival roles.

Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path .

When we turned our will and life over to the care of God, we started a life journey of living sober.

God made us for relationship with Him and with each other.

Moving forward in identifying character defects and allowing God to help us develop our true character is no easy process.

A sincere person is one who is honest, who doesn’t create false impressions, and who doesn’t operate with selfish motives.
