Gamblers Anonymous 12 Step Program

January 6 - Gamblers Anonymous, wrote Dr. Robert L. Custer in the foreword to the Gamblers Anonymous Blue Book, is a Program of Twelve Steps "that provides a framework of hope, structure, and friendship" for those who have chosen the road to a "successful adaptation to a life without gambling."  He add, "This road can be smooth or rocky, but in any case, it is never a painless journey..."  As a recovering compulsive gambler, I can face any discomforts today, knowing that the pain of recovery will never be as acute and as desperate as the pain of my gambling days.

Am I prepared to see each new day in the GA Program as a time for learning, growing, and making healthy choices?

Today I Pray - May I make prudent use of the power of choice that God has given me, to plan wisely, one day at a time, without becoming a slave to apprehension, regret, or anxiety.  I pray that God's will be done through the exercising of my own will, which He, in His goodness, has given me.

Today I Will Remember - God wills my will to be.
