Step Four -- Taking
Stock
STEP
FOUR: Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of
ourselves.
"We
took stock honestly ... Being convinced that self,
manifested in various ways, was what had defeated us, we
considered its common manifestations.
"Resentment is the 'number one' offender.
It destroys more alcoholics than anything else.
From it stem all forms of spiritual disease, for
we have been not only mentally and physically
ill, we have been spiritually sick."
c.
2001, Alcoholics Anonymous, page 64

**********************************
Searching
ourselves -- honestly -- a very hard step, but the more
we do it the easier it gets.
Yes sometimes God’s discipline and lessons are
hard, but when we obey, we find that we are better off
not only spiritually but physically as well.
In all honesty, we know that our way stinks -- it
has defeated us before, we were ill and made decisions
with very sick minds.
Searching
with God’s lead can only make ourselves better,
cleaner, newer and sober.
My
son, do not despise the LORD's discipline
and do not resent his rebuke,
because
the LORD disciplines those he loves,
as a father the son he delights in.
--
Proverbs
3: 11-12

”Two are better than one, because they
have a good reward for their toil.
For if they fall, one will lift up the other;
but woe to one who is alone and falls
and does not have another to help”
-- Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

this message to other alcoholics!
You
can help when no one else can."
