Start your day with a meaningful reflection and a moment of peace in this episode of AA Morning Snippets. Alyssa, an alcoholic in recovery, begins by leading a moment of silence for all suffering and recovering alcoholics, both inside and outside the rooms. She then recites the serenity prayer, asking for the strength to accept what cannot be changed and the courage to change what can be.
Alyssa shares her personal journey, highlighting how sobriety has improved her life and emphasising the importance of prioritising recovery, faith, and active participation in AA over any other aspect of life. She reflects on how excuses once justified her drinking, but now, sobriety is her main focus, and she encourages others to question whether they are putting anything before their sobriety today. Alyssa also reads a poignant letter to Dr.
Bob, reminding listeners that every AA group starts with a single person's efforts but must eventually grow into a democratic community. This transition from leadership to grassroots involvement is crucial for the group's long-term success. The episode concludes with the Lord's Prayer, reinforcing the spiritual foundation that supports many in their recovery journey. Alyssa's reflections offer a gentle reminder that recovery is a daily commitment supported by faith and community.
