December 15 - Some people are such worriers that they feel sorry about the fact that they have nothing to worry about. Newcomers in the GA Program sometimes feel, for example, "This is much too good to last." Most of us, however, have plenty of real things to worry about - old standbys like debt, health, death, and taxes, to name a few. But GA tells us that the antidote to worry and fear is confidence - confidence not in ourselves, but in our Higher Power.
Will I continue to believe that God can and will avert the calamity that I spend my days and nights dreading? Will I believe that, if calamity does strike, God will enable me to see it through?
Today I Pray - May I realize that the worry habit - worry that grows out of broader, often unlabeled fears - will take more than time to conquer. Like many others, I have lived with worry so long that it has become my constant, floor-pacing companion. May my Higher Power teach me that making a chum out of worry is a waste of my energy and fritters away my constructive hours.
Today I Will Pray - Kick the worry habit.
