The fact is, the higher up we find ourselves in terms of power, influence, and wealth – the more people look up to us – the more vulnerable we are to pride and self-deceit, and the more prone we are to be blind to our spiritual needs and deficiencies. Once we are established in a position of influence, we have a reputation to maintain. We have a lot to lose if we get honest about our real spiritual needs. For most of us, the subtle encroachment of pride is more dangerous, and more likely to render us useless to God and others, than any other kind of failure.

INSTRUCTIONS

AMARETTO SAUCE
>From the cookbook, "Froggy Bottom"
Combine all ingredients; mixture should be very moist but not soupy. Pour
into a 9 x 9 greased baking dish (I used a 9 x 13 baking dish for the
potato rolls). Place in oven and bake at 350&deg; for about 1 hour and 15
minutes, until top is golden brown. Serve warm with Amaretto sauce.
Amaretto Sauce: Cream oleo and x-sugar over medium heat until all butter is
absorbed. Remove from heat and blend in egg yolk. Pour in Amaretto
gradually to your own taste, stirring constantly. Sauce will thicken as it
cools. Serve warm over warm bread pudding.
