MARCH 20 v 3 TWELVE STEPPING WITH POWER IN THE PROVERB



Avoiding a fight is a mark of honor;
only fools insist on quarreling.

STEP 10 - Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.

 

As I get older the more and more I realize the proverb is right . Why are we so hell bent on proving our point. Back in the day not so long ago I knew everything and you could not tell me nothing . You could have been a world renown expert and I would find a reason to argue. Its ok too want to be right but if you don't have all the facts you need to make your point and don't push the person your haggling with they will eventually see the truth if they are the one at fault . It is not your job to beat it into their heads . The truth will always win out ! When we are wrong we need to man up and admit it that is called maturity and that is what us sober folks do. It will keep your mind and heart free of negativity , resentment , anger , bitterness , and denial .These are all fatal triggers that can push anyone into relapse.




JAMES CHAPTERP 1 v 19 v20 Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires.
