Into your weak and feeble hands I have entrusted a Power beyond your estimate. To you has been given that which has been denied to the most learned of your fellows. Not to scientists or statesmen, not to wives or mothers, not even to My priests and ministers have I given this gift of healing other alcoholics, addicts which I entrust to you. It must be used unselfishly. It carries with it grave responsibility. No day can be too long, no demands upon your time can be too urgent, no case too pitiable, no task too hard, no effort too great. It must be used with tolerance, for I have restricted its application to no race, no creed and no denomination. Personal criticism you must expect, lack of appreciation between yourselves, or your organization with other organizations whose success depends on numbers, money and position. These material things are no part of your creed. The success of material organization comes from the pooling of joint assets; yours from the union of mutual liabilities. Appeal for membership in material organizations is based upon a boastful recital of their accomplishments; yours on the humble admission of weakness; the motto of successful commercial enterprise is: " He profits most who serves best, " yours: " He serves best who seeks no profit. " The wealth of material organizations, when they take inventory, is measured by what they have left, yours, when you take moral inventory, by what you have given.
