DAILY REFLECTIONS for July 22nd

"THE GOOD AND THE BAD"

"My Creator, I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and bad."
Alcoholics Anonymous, Page 76

The joy of life is in the giving. Being freed of my shortcomings, that I may more freely be of service, allows humility to grow in me. My shortcomings can be humbly placed in God's loving care and be removed. The essence of Step Seven is humility, and what better way to seek humility than by giving all of myself – good and bad – to God, so that He may remove the bad and return to me the good.
