REFLECTION FOR TODAY

Anger can get me into trouble, and pride can keep me there. Admitting I am wrong is hard as I want to be perfect, keep my world all intact, and not lose control. I am not alone in the world any more. I am a human being living a life which is the best I know, and I do not have to be perfect. I can make mistakes and then correct the error without being a failure.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

May I have more patience and tolerance, which will lead to improved relations with You and others.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

Honesty is a powerful tool to eliminate false pride.

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

There are many important words involved in our program, but two of the most important are humility and responsibility. Much of my progress can be measured by these two words. They are extremely hard for me to accept and use. Humility bothers me because it goes against the grain of my false pride. Responsibility is tough because it is so much easier to let someone else take care of things. When I am responsible, I take care of my commitments and obligations. Most times that is hard work. When I accept and practice humility and responsibility, I grow rapidly.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

It is hard to be humble and responsible. Please ease my way.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

Humility and responsibility equal maturity and manageability.

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

In the process of learning and growing, I often find myself needing to deal with something I thought I had already eliminated. At these times I have rejected myself for being where I was. "I should not be here again," I thought. Slowly I am gaining the humility to understand that the program offers me greater and greater levels of healing. We only have to be willing to meet honestly the challenges which confront us in order for healing and growth to continue.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

Thank You for the opportunity You give me to deal more deeply and to experience life in all its abundance.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

I will continue healing and growing; I will become freer and freer.
