> June 26 –balance and timing; in God’s time, not ours.
> This is June, the 6th month of the year;
> • The 6th Tradition: An A.A. group ought never endorse, finance, or lend the A.A. name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property, and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.
> • The 6th Step: Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
> • The 6th Promise: That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear.

> We must know the nature of our weakness before we can determine how to deal with it. When we are honest about its presence, we may discover that it is imaginary and can be overcome by a change of thinking. We admit that we are alcoholics and we would be foolish if we refused to accept our handicap and do something about it. So by honestly facing our weakness and keeping ever present the knowledge that for us alcoholism is a disease with which we are afflicted, we can take the necessary steps to arrest it. Have I fully accepted my handicap?

> There is a proper time for everything. I must learn not to do things at the wrong time, that is, before I am ready or before conditions are right. it is always a temptation to do something at once, instead of waiting until the proper time. Timing is important. I must learn, in the little daily situations of life, to delay action until I am sure that I am doing the right thing at the right time. So many lives lack balance and timing. In the momentous decisions and crises of life, they may ask God's guidance, but into the small situations of life, they rush alone.

> I pray that I may delay action until I feel that I am doing the right thing. I pray that I may not rush in alone.

> The following is Excerpt No. 78 from As Bill Sees It : “Clearing a Channel”
> During the day, we can pause where situations must be met & decisions made, & renew the simple request "thy will, not mine, be done"
>
> If at these points our emotional disturbance happens to be great, we will more surely keep our balance provided we remember, & repeat to ourselves, a particular prayer or phrase that has appealed to us in our reading or meditation. Just saying it over & over will often enable us to return to the surest help of all - Our search for God's will, not our own, in the moment of stress.
