Realize
I’m not God; I admit that I
am powerless to control my
tendency to do the wrong thing
and that my life is unmanageable.
(Step 1)
“Happy
are those who know that they are
spiritually
poor.”
Earnestly
believe that God exists, that I
matter to Him and that He has the
power to help me recover. (Step
2)
“Happy
are those how mourn, for they
shall be
comforted.”
Consciously
choose to commit all my life and
will to Christ’s care and
control. (Step 3)
“Happy
are the meek.”
Openly
examine and confess my faults to
myself, to God, and to someone I
trust. (Steps 4 and 5)
“Happy
are the pure in
heart.”
Voluntarily
submit to any and all changes God
wants to make in my life and
humbly ask Him to remove my
character defects. (Steps 6 and
7)
“Happy
are those whose greatest desire
is to do what God
requires”
Evaluate
all my relationships. Offer
forgiveness to those who have
hurt me and make amends for harm
I’ve done to others when
possible, except when to do so
would harm them or others. (Steps
8 and 9)
“Happy
are the merciful.”
“Happy
are the
peacemakers”
Reserve
a time with God for
self-examination, Bible reading,
and prayer in order to know God
and His will for my life and to
gain the power to follow His
will. (Steps 10 and
11)
Yield
myself to God to be used to bring
this Good News to others, both by
my example and my words. (Step
12)
“Happy
are those who are persecuted
because they do what God
requires.”
