Tomorrow Is Another Day As compulsive overeaters, we can be tormented by the urge to finish everything right now, today. That was the way we used to eat, and it may still be the way we try to operate in other areas of behavior. It is possible to exchange our addiction to food for an addiction to work or perfection. Trying to do everything today is just another example of self will run riot. We are not super people and we cannot perform miracles. It is our Higher Power who makes possible our accomplishments, and His work is done slowly and gradually. God never expects more of us than we are able to deliver. It is our own pride that entices us to tackle the impossible. As long as we are alive, our work will not be finished. Each day we are given new tasks to do and new experiences to enjoy. What we do not complete today can be continued tomorrow, according to the will of our Higher Power. I leave tomorrow's tasks for tomorrow. Š1980, 1992 by Hazelden Foundation

I do get the message, and to often I am prone to thinking no one can do it but me....I am getting better at delegating jobs out to others....but God is still working hard in that area in me..
