Trouble: Constructive or Destructive

Thought for Today
There was a time when we ignored trouble, hoping it would go away. Or, in fear and depression, we ran from it, but found it was still with us. Often, full of unreason, bitterness, and blame, we fought back. These mistaken attitudes, powered by alcohol, guaranteed our destruction, unless they were altered.
Then came AA. . . . Surprisingly, we found that our troubles could, under God's grace, be converted into unimaginable blessings.
