With Humility, Comes Responsibility

November 13 - All progress can be boiled down and measured by just two word:  humility and responsibility.  It's said that our entire spiritual development can be precisely measured by our degree of adherence to those standards.  Only by abandoning my self-centeredness and maintaining contact with a Higher Power can I achieve true humility.  Only by regaining contact with reality can I develop responsibility. 

Am I trying my honest best to live my standards of humility and responsibility?

Today I Pray - I pray that of all the good words and catch phrases and wisps of inspiration that come to me, I will remember these two above all:  humility and responsibility.  These may be the hardest to come by - humility because it means shooing away my pride, responsibility because I am in the habit of using my gambling addiction as a thin excuse for getting out of obligations.  I pray that I may break these old patters.

Today I Will Remember - First humility, then responsibility.
