Let Change Come From Your Heart

"From the beginning, communication in AA has been no ordinary transmission of helpful ideas and attitudes. Because of our kinship in suffering, and because our common means of deliverance are effective for ourselves only when constantly carried to others, our channels of contact have always been charged with the language of the heart."

c. 1967, As Bill Sees It, page 195

Just for Today -- A Daily Devotional
**********************************
We can attend meetings, work the steps as our sponsor’s guide us, but if we don’t have that heart change -- we will always struggle in our recovery.

In our meetings, we have seen people that have been through rehab – multiple times – they know what they are supposed to do -- and some even walk through the steps and do what is expected to be done to recovery, but if it is never in their heart, if they don’t have a language that comes from the heart and if we don’t love God and want Him to do a work in us -- the struggle is inevitable – we will continually walk in the vicious cycle of addiction.

Work on the language of your heart today, invite God in.
