NOVEMBER 1 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Put pride in its place"
Update: 2025-11-01
Description
Those whom I most respect in the Gamblers Anonymous Program - and, in turn, those from whom I've learned the most - seem convinced that pride is, as one person put it, the "root-sin." In moral theology, pride is the first of the seven deadly sins. It is also considered the most serious, standing apart from the rest by virtue of its unique quality. Pride gets right into our spiritual victories. It insinuates itself into all our successes and accomplishments, even when we attribute them to God.
Do I struggle against pride by working the Tenth Step regularly, facing myself freshly and making things right where they've gone wrong?
Today I Pray … May I be on guard constantly against the sneakiness of pride, which can creep into every achievement, every triumph, every reciprocated affection. May I know that whenever things are going well for me, my pride will be on the spot ready to take credit. May I watch for it.
Today I Will Remember … Put pride in its place.
