In this episode of the Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast, Sarah M. from Pittsburgh takes us through the readings for July 5th, focusing on the theme of simplicity. The episode kicks off with a reflection on how a willingness to follow simple instructions can make the AA programme more manageable.
Sarah shares her personal experience of attending meetings and staying active in the community, emphasising that these activities are not chores but rather sources of relaxation and refreshment after a long day. The episode includes various readings from AA literature, including 'Twenty-Four Hours a Day', 'Daily Reflections', and 'As Bill Sees It'. A notable segment discusses the creation of the 12 Steps by Bill W., highlighting how these steps were crafted to leave no room for rationalisation by alcoholics.
The readings also touch on the importance of aligning one's will with God's guidance, noting that even the strongest-willed individuals need direction to overcome their struggles with alcohol. Listeners will find comfort in the inclusive message from Tradition 3, which states that anyone who declares themselves an AA member is welcomed, regardless of their past. The episode concludes with a thought-provoking meditation and prayer, encouraging listeners to seek God's direction in their lives.
Whether you're new to sobriety or a long-time member of AA, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in for a dose of inspiration and a reminder that simplicity and community are key to recovery.
