Sobriety for a Day

Just For Today! -- Daily Reprieve

"How do I maintain my spiritual condition? For me it's quite simple: on
a daily basis I ask my Higher Power to grant me the gift of sobriety for that
day! I have talked to many alcoholics who have gone back to drinking and I
always ask them: "Did you pray for sobriety the day you took your first
drink?" Not one of them said yes. As I practice Step Ten and try to keep my
house in order on a daily basis, I have the knowledge that if I
ask for a daily reprieve, it will be granted."

From "A Daily Tune-up:"

Thought to Ponder . . .
Every recovery from alcoholism began with one sober hour.
