Shakespeare, King Henry V.<br>Humility is the virtue that brings us closest to reality. That makes it very important in addiction recovery. True humility does not allow false pride; it enables us to learn from others and it allows us to ask for help without feeling ashamed. It allows us to understand our weaknesses and to admit our mistakes. It is hard to imagine spiritual growth without humility. Do I understand that I need humility if I am to grow spiritually?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-8f4ef859dc4772d7090901490fe34a14\"><br><strong>Humility is a difficult virtue to attain because it involves mastery of the ego. It is quite natural that I should care how other people regard me, because I am a social animal. But if I make myself seem better than I am, I live a lie. Much better to be honest. Today I will meditate on the words of the apostle, James:<br>Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will lift you up.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-2fcdb45d8ff511278ae99de63334998c\"><strong>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow on TikTok Videos at&nbsp;https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@recoverydays?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=p View VIDEO on Facebook https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094027278120 Remember Mindfulness \u2013 review expectations Spiritual growth In peace, there\u2019s nothing so becomes a manas modest stillness and humility.W.
