Gratitude

I'm grateful for the little things today. I'm grateful to be of service to other alcoholics and addicts. I'm grateful for recovery and that my sobriety today is not dependent on anything of this world. I'm grateful my higher power is doing for me what I could not do for myself. I'm grateful I can be a father my children, the time I get with them, and I'm real grateful to be sober today. I never had a problem with being grateful for the big things in sobriety, but I'm learning to be grateful for all the little things. It's amazing how much growth there has been in how I perceive things after working intensively with other alcoholics. Thank God I'm alive today to be able to participate in this new way of life! All things good in my life are credit to God as we understand Him. All my problems are of my own making and are just that problems. I know where this solution is and for that, I'm grateful and it's no small miracle I'm here today to do this gratitude list. I pray for all the sick and suffering still out there today. If you're in these rooms, keep coming back until this miracle begins to come true. Amen.
