My word today is powerless. I remind myself each day that I am powerless not only over alcohol but over the people places and things in my life and that I will need help getting through today. I ask the god of my understanding for that help. The book twelve steps twelve traditions tells me "that little good comes to any alcoholic who joins AA unless he has first accepted his devastating weakness and all its consequences. " The big book tells me that "lack of power that was our dilemma. We had to find a power by which we could live and it had to be a power greater than ourselves." Most good ideas are simple.
