Are these extravagant promises? We think not. They are being fulfilled among us -- sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. They will always materialize if we work for them.

| Adapted from Alcoholics Anonymous page 83. | |||||||||||||||
| If we are painstaking about this phase of our development, we will be amazed before we are halfway through. We are going to know a new freedom and a new peace. We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it. No matter how far down the path we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others. That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear. We will loose interest in ourselves and gain interest in our fellows. Self-seeking will slip away. Our whole attitude and outlook upon life well change. Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us. We will intuitively know how to handle situations, which used to baffle us. We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves. Are these extravagant promises? We think not. They are being fulfilled among us -- sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. They will always materialize if we work for them. |
