~SPIRITUAL NOT RELIGIOUS~ A DAY AT A TIME
03/29 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
What is the definition of humility? "Absolute humility," said AA cofounder Bill W., "would consist of a state of complete freedom from myself, freedom from all the claims that my defects of character now lay so heavily upon me. Perfect humility would be a full willingness, in all times and places, to find and to do the will of God." AM I STRIVING FOR HUMILITY?
TODAY I PRAY
May God expand my interpretation of humility beyond abject subservience or awe at the greatness of others. May humility also mean freedom from myself, a freedom which can come only through turning my being over to God's will. May I sense the omnipotence of God, which is simultaneously humbling and exhilarating. May I be willing to carry out His will.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Humility is freedom.
