DAILY REFLECTIONS for December 21st

LISTEN, SHARE AND PRAY

When working with a man and his family, you should take care not to participate in their quarrels. You may spoil your chance of being helpful if you do.
Alcoholics Anonymous, Page 100

When trying to help a fellow alcoholic, I've given in to an impulse to give advice, and perhaps that's inevitable. But allowing others the right to be wrong reaps its own benefits. The best I can do – and it sounds easier than it is to put into practice – is to listen, share personal experience, and pray for others.
