I got to attend the noon meeting today we read about tradition 5. There were several new people there again today. I thought about carrying the message rather than voicing my opinion.

Today at work I didn't quite feel right about something. Somehow I feel as though I am acting in complete integrity in my faith.

A couple of guys had a discussion with me about some people that aren't living up to their obligations. I said something about how no one ever does or ever will completely because it is human nature. I thought perhaps I was too opinionated and that they were engaging in appropriate fraternal correction. But I see now that it is a matter of attitude.

This evening we had a baseball game. I had a great time until my dad started making critical comments. On top of that the boys made some key mistakes. I have to focus on the positives and just be as helpful as I can. But, I have to determine a way to speak to my dad about this.

God help me to be free from disturbance (fear) and to keep things in perspective.
God help me to find the right approach and the right words with my dad.

I was grateful today for all that God has done for me.
