  • MARCH 23 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Hear my own complaints"
    Mar 23 2026
    Gamblers Anonymous teaches us, through the experience, strength, and hope of its Fellowship, that the worst situation imaginable does not warrant a return to gambling. No matter how bad a particular situation or set of circumstances, the return to our old ways for even a minute will assuredly make it worse. Am I grateful for the caring and sharing of the Program? Today I Pray … May I insist that no stone can be heavy enough to drag me back down into the pool of my addiction. No burden, no disappointment, no blow to pride or loss of human love is worth the price of returning to my old way of life. When I harbor thoughts that life is "too much" for me, that no one should be expected to "take so much and still remain sane" or that I am "the fall guy," let me listen for the tone of my complaints and remember that I have heard that whine before-before I concluded that I was powerless over gam bling and gave my will over to the will of God. Such wailing sets me up for gam bling again. May God keep my ears alert to the tone of my own complaining. Today I Will Remember … Hear my own complaints. A Day at a Time https://amzn.to/3EOjuiH G.A.

  • MARCH 22 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
    Mar 22 2026
    Once in a great while, I find myself thinking that perhaps things weren't quite so bad as they seemed to be. At such moments, I force myself to realize that my illness is talking to me, trying to tempt me into denying that I am, in fact, afflicted with an illness. One of the key action steps of the Gamblers Anonymous Program is that we give our illness to God as we understand Him, accepting our powerlessness in the face of His greater Power. Do I believe that the grace of God can do for me what I could never do for myself? Today I Pray … May I know that much of our lives depends on faith. For we cannot know the limits of space and time-or explain the mysteries of life and death. But when we see God working through us-and through others who have found new life in the GA Program - it is all the evidence we need to know that God exists. Today I Will Remember … The Big Wheel runs by faith. A Day at a Time https://amzn.to/3EOjuiH G.A. A New Beginning https://amzn.to/3E9YgPC

  • MARCH 21 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Be wary of new theories"
    Mar 21 2026
    The Gamblers Anonymous Program teaches us that we have an incurable illness. We always get worse, never better. But we're fortunate in that our incurable illness can be arrested, one day at a time, as long as we don't place that first bet. High-toned academic research and ivory-tower studies to the contrary, we know from experience that we can no more control our gambling than we can control the ocean tides. Do I have any doubt that I am powerless over gambling? Today I Pray … May I never fall prey to any short-term research results that tell me that compulsive gambling can be cured, that it would be safe to begin gambling again, supposedly in a responsible manner. My experience and the experience of others in GA-will outshout such theories. May I know that, if I took up gambling again, I would begin where I left off-closer than ever to prison, insanity, or death. Today I Will Remember … Be wary of new theories.
