> January 14: We have been created to love and to be loved.
> This is January, the 1st month of the year;
> • The 1st Tradition: Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon A.A. unity.
> • The 1st Step: We admitted we were powerless over alcohol--that our lives had become unmanageable.
> • The 1st Promise: If we are painstaking about this phase [Steps 8 & 9] of our development, we will be amazed before we are half way through.

> Thought for the Day
> When we first came into A.A., a sober life seemed strange. We wondered what life could possibly be like without ever taking a drink. At first, a sober life seemed unnatural. But the longer we’re in A.A., the more natural this way of life seems. And now we know that the life we’re living in A.A., the sobriety, the fellowship, the faith in God, and the trying to help each other, is the most natural way we could possibly live. Do I believe it’s the way God wants me to live?

> Meditation for the Day
> I will learn to overcome myself, because every blow to selfishness is used to shape the real, eternal, unperishable me. As I overcome myself, I gain that power which God releases in my soul. And I too will be victorious. It is the difficulties of life that I have to conquer, so much as my own selfishness.
>
> Prayer for the Day
> I pray that I may obey God and walk with Him and listen to Him. I pray that I may strive to overcome my own selfishness.
