JULY 8
AN EVER-GROWING FREEDOM
The Seventh Step is where we make the change in our
attitude which permits us, with humility as our guide, to
move out from ourselves toward others and toward God.
TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 76
When I finally asked God to remove those things blocking
me from Him and the sunlight of the Spirit, I embarked on
a journey more glorious than I ever imagined. I
experienced a freedom from those characteristics that had
me wrapped up in myself. Because of this humbling Step, I
feel clean.
I am especially aware of this Step because I'm now able
to be useful to God and to my fellows. I know that He has
granted me strength to do His bidding and has prepared me
for anyone, and anything, that comes my way today. I am
truly in His hands, and I give thanks for the joy that I can
be useful today.
