Meditations on "Humility"

The end of Tradition 12 in the Big Book of AA sums up an important principle in our recovery: We need to regularly count our blessings.

In life there often seems to be two groups of people, those who speak well and look good and those who always seem to get things wrong.

To go forward in recovery we must find new direction for our lives, new ways of responding to issues, and new guidelines for making decisions.

Audio for WISDOM IN THE STORM If we follow God’s plan on our journey of life in recovery, we need not be fearful when we encounter the storms of life.

When we're making amends, we need to be wise in the way we go about it, being careful not to cause others further injury.

If someone was to evaluate our daily interaction with others, would they describe us as gentle or harsh?

An important part of living with God in recovery is coming to an accurate view of what went wrong in our relationships and doing our part to make things right.

A humble life is grounded in a realistic view of ourselves.

God's purpose in creating humans in His likeness was that they would live in loving relationship with Him and with each other.

In a TV program a team of designers and builders make it their project to replace the inadequate home of a well-deserving family with a brand-new home.

We begin the process of changing our selfish way of living by turning our will and our life over to God’s care.

Our former lifestyle of destructive life habits and addiction was harsh and filled with problems.
