JULY 17 Chp 62 v 11 v 12 TWELVE STEPPING WITH STRENGTH FROM THE PSALMS

God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God. Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.

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

What goes around comes around ! Karma ,or as I like to put it you reap what you sow . Fourteen years sober and some of the stuff I did in the past still comes back to bite me on the butt . Whatever you dish out according too the Psalm will come back to you .Step ten is so important because it will prevent you a lot of trouble down the road. Owning your crap and taking responsibility for your mistakes is called maturity and it is a must for any successful recovery . It will not be easy though , I still struggle with doing and saying the right things.

Ephesians 4:22 ;24 To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness
