Twenty-Four Hours A Day

Since 1954, Twenty-Four Hours a Day has become a stable force in the recovery of many alcoholics throughout the world. With over six and a half million copies in print (the original text has been revised), this "little black book" offers daily thoughts, meditations, and prayers for living a clean and sober life. A spiritual resource with practical applications to fit our daily lives.

"For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision" is part of the Sanskrit proverb quoted at the beginning of the book which has become one of the basic building blocks for a life of sobriety. In addition to a thought, meditation and prayer for each day of the year, this handy, pocket-sized volume also contains the Serenity Prayer and the 12 Steps and 12 Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It is a simple, yet effective way to help us relate the Twelve Steps to everyday life and helps us find the power not to take that first drink each day.

A Daily Friend to Me

By A Customer - April 1, 2000

Primarily thought of as a book geared for the recovering alcoholic, this wonderful book could really apply to whatever addiction one may suffer, including selfishness. A wonderful book that compliments the AA program, that when read each morning it gets me started off on the right foot, and reminds me to put God and the needs of my friends and family first, thus keeping my selfish tendencies under wraps. A great companion, and certainly a great gift for someone starting recovery from alcoholism.

Help each day

This book is good for daily meditation. I would also recommend the book An Encounter with A Prophet to get closer to God.

Great Book !

By Gary W. Hartman - May 8, 2000

I read this book every day, it is set up with a daily meditation and prayer. Although it only takes a few minutes to read I feel it has greatly helped me to stay sober for six years, by concentrating on 24 hours a day. Gary H.
