Spiritual toolbox

One morning when my husband and I were on a road trip, we read something in Daily Reflections about a "spiritual kit of tools." As we drove down the highway we decided to make a list of things we would put into our spiritual toolbox. We had such fun that a few days later we stopped at a hardware store and bought the smallest toolbox we could find. We also bought a plug and receptacle so we could "plug in" to our Higher Power. These went into the box along with a Grapevine; a "God box" (a small box where I place notes to God when something troubles me); small copies of the Big Book and "Twelve and Twelve"; a small notebook and pen; and several 3 by 5 cards with reminders on them such as "Write a gratitude list from one to 10," "Rule 62," "Easy Does It" and other slogans, as well as page numbers of where to find prayers in the literature. In the tray that sits inside the top of the toolbox, I put my sponsor's phone number.
