Today is the “Nativity of St. John the Baptist”
John recognized Jesus before birth and willingly followed him to death.
Jesus, help me to practice selfless dedication to you, so that like Joh, I can try to prepare the world to receive you.
Meditations for Each Day, pg. 249, Belonging Entirely to God
Willingly or unwillingly, we belong entirely to God. He created us from nothing and all that we have is his- soul and body, material and spiritual gifts and the world we live in.
Courage to Change, pg. 176, Today’s Reminder
The finest gift I can give to ensure my continued recovery is willingness. Each demonstration of willingness, each meeting attended, each Al-Anon tool used, is a mark of my success. “Every good thought you think is contributing its share to the ultimate result of your life.” Grenville Kleiser
Also take a peek at Al-Anon’s 12 steps and twelve traditions specifically the preface and the introduction.
Scripture Reading for Day 24 of Dealing with the Enemy
James 1:20 for the wrath of a man does not accomplish the righteousness of God.k
Galations 5:16-17 l I say, then: live by the Spirit and you will certainly not gratify the desire of the flesh.* 17 For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; these are opposed to each other, so that you may not do what you want.m
Good Morning!

2 copy jobs completed
SUV still in shop… 1 wiper tray, 2 tires, 1 coil, and ball joints/rocker arms… back today I hope. I keep asking myself why we continue to fix this thing. My answer always comes back because it is less expensive than buying a new one. I sure don’t need a monthly payment at this time in my life. The Subaru, I dislike immensely, wrecks the knees.
Know you are prayed for.
