Northeastern Maryland Intergroup of AA

Now we need more action...

"...'Faith without works is dead.'...Remember it was agreed at the beginning we would go to any lengths for victory over alcohol....As we look over the list...we may feel diffident about going to some of them on a spiritual basis...At the moment we are trying to put our lives in order...Our real purpose is to fit ourselves to be of maximum service to God and the people about us...He is going to be more interested in a demonstration of good will than in our talk of spiritual discoveries...Simply we tell him that we will never get over drinking until we have done our utmost to straighten out the past."

Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 76 - 77
