Hi All,
I am currently working on Step 7.
After working 1 through 6 it seems fitting to be here.

I have savored each of the steps. Someone told me they went to a workshop where they went through all the steps in one day.
Not me, I am taking my time. My Shortcomings have come between me and my HP, family and friends and I want to look each one right in the eye and ask God to remove it. And I will ask him every day.
" My God, I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single defect of character which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my fellows. Grant me strength as I go out from here to do your bidding.
Amen (Big Book Step Seven Prayer)

Awesome.

I love step 7. I love that it's God's job to remove the defects, and not mine!
