I Greet The Indwelling Authentic Self.
Today’s “Pay Forward” gift is – Be Authentic - Be Ourselves. Augustine cried out, “Thou hast made us for Thyself, and our hearts are restless until they find themselves in Thee.” Father this is the day; You have made, let us rejoice in it and share the love we are. Let our sharing be an act of love and compassion; these are not luxuries. Let us view one another as a whole being; Spiritual, mental, physical, emotional and social being. We are problem people, mostly because we try to separate our lives into parts, and we project our understanding and experience on to others, when it is ourselves that needs correction. The solution is to align ourselves, with our Father’s Love and Will, and to conform to it, but not as a separated being. It is useful to focus on one part of our being at a time, but let us not forget to rejoin that part with our whole being. When we are sharing A.A. with another alcoholic let us remember to regard the whole person. We are all unique individually; however, we are all of one life. Some will be “doing” the same things as we are, some better and some not, but no one can “do” it as we can. Let us rejoice this day and be the individual we were created as, no one could do that better. All we need has already given to us. Thy Love, Thy Will be done.
