> November 15-being less sensitive, less afraid, faith, brave
>
> This is November, the 11th month of the year;
> • The 11th Tradition reads: Our public relations policy is ba
> sed on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain per
> sonal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films.
> • The 11th Step: Sought through prayer and meditation to impr
> ove our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying onl
> y for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
> • The 11th Promise: We will intuitively know how to handle si
> tuations which used to baffle us.

> I am less sensitive and my feelings are less easily hurt. I no
> longer take myself so seriously. It didn't used to take much to
> insult me, to feel that I had been slighted or left on the outside.
> What happens to me now is not so important. One cause of our
> drinking was that we couldn't take it, so we escaped the unpleasant
> situation. We have learned to take it on the chin if necessary and
> smile. When I am all wrapped up in A.A., I do not notice the
> personal slights so much. They do not seem to matter so much. I have
> learned to laugh at self-pity because it's so childish. Am I less
> sensitive?

> God's miracle-working power is as manifest today as it was in the
> past. It still works miracles of change in lives and miracles of
> healing in twisted minds. When a person trusts wholly in God and
> leaves to Him the choosing of the day and hour, there is God's
> miracle-working power becoming manifest in that persons life. So we
> can trust in God and have boundless faith in His power to make us
> whole again, whenever He chooses.

> Prayer for the Day
>
> I pray that I may feel sure that there is nothing that God cannot
> accomplish in changing my life. I pray that I may have faith in His
> miracle-working power.
