Snippets of wisdom heard at WSC 2013

9/9/2013

FROG = Fully Relying On God.

It takes a village/fellowship to flourish in recovery. My life depends on that village/fellowship

How far are you willing to go?

If not now, when?

If I just talk the talk, then I keep the wall up, and people can’t get past.

God is good. I was stubborn.

In adversity I lean on God, but when life is back to ordinary it's easy to forget.

When I suffer from an unforgiving spirit, I will ponder an issue This leads to resentment and grows the feeling of anger. I re-live the injury as if it had just happened, and that makes it fester until it becomes bitterness.

Un-forgiveness is the poison we prepare for another but drink ourselves.

If I put the program first, I’ll get a first-class program.

My best thinking may not be leading me to the solution.

I do not need to manage everything. God is the director.

I’m a guardian of the Traditions.

Service is gratitude put into action.

Every day I have to go to the power source.

In order to refrain from compulsive overeating, you need to refrain from compulsive overeating. Don’t take the first bite.

You have to experience abstinence to believe it.

I needed to take the abundance out of my mouth to get abundance in life.

I don’t use food for anything other than to nourish me.

I was supposed to do it WITH you not alone.

I am a bigot: I don’t eat anything white!

Gratitude improves my conscious contact.

Looking for God incidences.

Okay God, what are we going to do today?

I am the power of example of OA.

·        

BINGE:
         Because
·        I’m
·        Not
·        Good
·        Enough

I became humble when I couldn’t remember to keep God central in my life.

I want my carry-on baggage to be of the spiritual type, I don’t want to leave it unattended.

·       

HOPE:
         Hearing
·        Other
·        People's
·        Experiences

Does my course of action sound reasonable? Does it pass the test of sportsmanship and unity? How will it affect others?

I am a sponge: if I am full, I am not able to absorb new information.
