    OCTOBER 25 Reflection for the Day

    My gambling addiction was like a thief in more ways than I can count. It robbed me not only of money, property, and other material things, but of dignity and self-respect, while my family and friends suffered right along with me. Gambling also robbed me of the ability to treat myself properly, as God would treat me. Today, in total contrast, I’m capable of true love of self – to the extent that I’m able to provide myself with more love than even I need. So I give that love away to other people in the Gamblers Anonymous Program, just as they have given their love to me.

    Do I thank God for bringing me to a Program in which sick people are loved back to health?

    Today I Pray
    Thanks be to God for a way of life that generates such love and caring that we in the GA Program can’t help but learn to love ourselves. When I see that someone cares about me, I am more apt to be convinced that perhaps I am, after all, worth caring about. May I be conscious always of the love I am now able to give – and give it.

    Today I Will Remember
    Someone caring about me makes me feel worth caring about.
