JUST FOR TODAY! -- Progress

STEP SIX: Is an inner transformation sometimes called repentance.

STEP SIX: Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.

“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.” -- James 4:10

"In doing Step Six it helped me a lot to remember that I am striving for 'spiritual progress.'  Some of my character defects may be with me for the rest of my life, but most have been toned down or eliminated.  All that Step Six asks of me is to become willing to name my defects, claim them as my own, and be willing to discard the ones I can, just for today."

Just for Today -- A Daily Devotional

**********************************

The recovery growth is gradual; the Christian walk is also gradual.  It makes sense, we come into the world as babies, we learn each day how to walk, talk, eat, etc.  So too with recovery steps, we walk as babies in the beginning learning new ways, learning to rely on God -- learning how to live in sobriety -- one day at a time.  Working Step Six is a life-long process – each day asking God to reveal to us what we need to change and be willing to make the changes, just for today!

“Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position.  But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  To him be glory both now and forever!”  Amen. -- II Peter 3:17-19
