Came to Believe  I came thru the doors of A.A. an agnostic. If there really was a God, then how could he of let me sink to the dept of pain and despair that I had. This book helped me thru this question and others. It helped jumpstart me into Step 2. I have read this book over and over and every time I feel my faith waning I read it again. Many of us will read our exact experiences in the stories of this book. I was one with a slow spiritual awakening. Many of us don't find that instant awakening that is described in the big book. I can't recommend this book enough. 

Daily Reflections : A Book of Reflections by Aa Members for Aa Members "This little meditation book is a great help for people in recovery seeking to build and maintain a firm spiritual foundation one day at a time. Using A.A.'s "take what you can use and leave the rest" rule of thumb will make this book of tremendous value to most anyone, regardless of religion (or lack thereof)."

Laugh! I Thought I'd Die (If I Didn't : Daily Meditations on Healing Through Humor) by Anne Wilson Schaef. I'd rather laugh than cry so I use this book much more than "Daily Reflections". I love the fact that one of my favorite sayings "Where ever you go, there you are" about trying to move away from our problems was actually coined by Kermit the Frog. All the insight of other meditation books are in here, just with a humorous slant.

A Day at a Time : Daily Reflections for Recovering People by Jane T. Noland "I have used this meditation book as a recovering person since 1983 and have given it as gifts for years. This is my favorite of these type books because it is not purely Christian in its focus. There are quotes included by many diverse authors (Epicurius, Homer, Thomas Merton, Emerson, even Elizabeth Barret Browning to name but a few). It also leads one thru the twelve steps as a suggested program of action rather than a guilt obsessed "should book"."

Meditations for People Who (May) Worry Too Much by Anne Wilson Schaef (Editor), Cheryl Woodruff (Editor), "A wise and graceful sequel to that beloved book, which is also a collection of daily meditations, Schaef encourages us to give up the worries that trouble so many of our lives.
Schaef helps us to smile at our worries and encourages us to re-examine our discontent and our desperate need to control our lives. She ponders with us the true nature of love, solitude, creativity, friendship, sorrow, intimacy, and all the experiences that go into making a life. Best of all, she inspires us to respect our own particular inner rhythm and intuitive wisdom, to live this moment, now, with trust and joy."
