DAILY REFLECTION – SELF-ACCEPTANCE
11 November 2024
SELF-ACCEPTANCE
We know that God lovingly watches over us. We know that when we turn to Him, all will be well with us, here and hereafter.
TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 105
I pray for the willingness to remember that I am a child of God, a divine soul in human form, and that my most basic and urgent life-task is to accept, know, love and nurture myself. As I accept myself, I am accepting God’s will. As I know and love myself, I am knowing and loving God. As I nurture myself I am acting on God’s guidance.
I pray for the willingness to let go of my arrogant self-
criticism, and to praise God by humbly accepting and caring for myself.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
We claim spiritual progress rather than
spiritual perfection. Pg 60
