I attend 6 meetings a week, but 5 different venues. I have my favourite, but my soul gets fed where ever I go!
We have a Big Book meeting every Saturday morning, in the gardens of a beautiful Anglican church, and weather permits, we do it under a huge tree (it is summer here).
I take the work very serious, surprising how many folk just attend a meeting a week, no step work, and they seem ok? I committed to the entire programme... So, I go home late morning on Saturday, and got busy with Step 4. Having done much work on myself, spiritual, self empowerment, regressions, etc, I didn't think that I carried much resentment. So, I kept putting it off, as I "have done the forgiveness" bits. BOY! I got up to 44 names!!! My sponsor asked me to just put names down, and the causes, but... I went all the way. I was left feeling quite negative about myself, and my sponsor was out of the country for the week-end... The thinking was: can't I be JUST selfish OR inconsiderate OR dishonest... Needless to say, I realised I am it ALL... And it is ok...
At last night's (Sunday) meeting, an old-timer summarised the BB: Trust God, clean house, and serve others. So I gather, the cleaner my house, the better I can serve! I now, want to get through it all, so yhat I can share with others what was given to me!
Here is tot wishing all of us a good week! Mary, once again thank you SO much for the service you do here!
Love to all! xxx
