Gifts From God – Step 7 Humility (Part 2)

Send us a text

So, my friends, if last week was about humility, then this week is really going to be about humility plus. I am going to talk about the last part of the seventh step, the way it was originally written. The seventh step you will find today, both in the literature and hanging on the meeting place walls is as follows: “Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings”. The original version read as follows: “Humbly asked Him, on our knees, to remove our shortcomings, holding nothing back”. A little bit has been lost from the first edition of work is called the “Big Book”. In this episode I’ll speak about the last phrase in the old seventh step,”holding nothing back”. I fought over this phrase quite a bit in my single early days, even more after I truly discovered and began to apply these 12 steps to my life, and today still, I am discovering little bits and pieces that I would like to hold back.
