Step 1: I Am Powerless (Part 1)

Send us a text

In my 77 years I have attempted these steps in 3 ways. The first attempt was purely through and for my ego. My life was a mess and I simply wanted to feel and look good.

The 2nd attempt was more sincere. I absolutely believed my life to be in shambles and I had become willing to change. I realized that by living my life in the same way as before, I would get the same results. As a result, I did make some changes in my life, however, there was still something missing. There was a nagging feeling of incompleteness, a sense of emptiness that I could not escape. I know now that it was the constant plea of my Holy Spirit; an insistent poking, if you will, to get my attention. I finally am answering that ‘poke’, realizing it is asking for my complete surrender.

Don’t worry! It’s not a bad thing! It simply cleared the path for me to discover God’s unconditional love for me! Simply stated, I was now able to say ‘YES’ to God.

I hope you join me in these next episodes as I attempt to share with you what these steps mean to me, not just as a ‘program’, but as a spiritual invitation from God and our Holy Spirit.
