Twenty-Four Hours A Day

A.A. Thought For The Day

Fear and worry had me down. They were increased by my drinking. I
worried about what I
had done when I was drunk. I was afraid of what the consequences might
be. I was afraid to
face people because of the fear of being found out. Fear kept me in hot
water all the time. I
was a nervous wreck from fear and worry. I was a tied-up bundle of
nerves. I had a fear of
failure, of the future, of growing old, of sickness, of hangover, of
suicide. I had a wrong set
of ideas and attitudes. When A.A. told me to surrender these fears and
worries to a Higher
Power, I did so. I now try to think faith instead of fear. Have I put
faith in place of fear?
