AA Thought for the Day

October 10, 2004

Humility

In AA, we looked and listened.
Everywhere we saw failure and misery
transformed by humility into priceless assets.
We heard story after story of how humility
had brought strength out of weakness.
In every case, pain had been the price of admission
into a new life. . .
We began to fear pain less,
and desire humility more than ever.

Thought to Ponder....

Many people haven't even a nodding acquaintance
with humility as a way of life.
