Step10: Keeping Vigilant. (Part 1)

Send us a text

Steps 10, 11, and 12 are referred to as the maintenance steps. In step ten, we are actually doing a, (hopefully), lighter version of the fourth step. A lot of work has been put into getting well in the first nine steps, and now we are going to keep a vigilant eye on ourselves … through our Spirit and try to immediately spot any tendency to revert to our old, unwanted behaviors.

In this episode, we’ll talk mostly about the need to be vigilant and make as certain as possible that none of our old ways try to invade our new, spiritual life. Yes, I said our new spiritual life. By now, by this step in the 12-step program, we should be living an entirely new way of life. It may not be near perfection, but we have a whole new set of directions to live by. We have cleared away much of the wreckage of the past. We are building a new, God centered life that nothing or no one can defeat.
