STEP 6 Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.


PSALM 51    
3 I recognize my faults;
I am always conscious of my sins.
4 I have sinned against you—only against you—

you are justified in condemning me.
5 I have been evil from the day I was born;
from the time I was conceived, I have been sinful.
