saturday i was thinking about spiritual growth that AA talks about and i was just wondering how we know if we are exercising our spiritual side, wondering how we know we are growing spiritually...... Bamm! the daily reflection for Sunday put it in a clear way for me to touch and see. the Daily Reflection reminded me something called the 'fruit of the spirit' : love, joy, peace, longsuffering (patience), gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. it is so wonderful how AA, the steps, and our readings dovetail and encourage us in our walk and growth in sobriety. Private message me if you want to know where the fruit of the spirit is printed. jj
