2:20
But there is one left all pop. That is one. That one is gone.
2:25
May you find him not. Half-metres of bill does nothing.
2:29
We stood at an attorney point. We asked his protection and carried complete abandonment.
2:34
Here are the steps we took which are suggested as a program of recovery.
2:39
What we admittedly were powerless with our call.
2:41
There are lives going to become unmanageable.
2:43
Two, came to believe that part of greater than ourselves for resource disdainment.
2:47
Three, made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood in.
2:53
Four, made a searching and fearless wall in the inventory of ourselves.
2:57
Five, admitted to God and to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
3:04
Six, we entirely read, we were entirely ready to have God remove all these effects of character.
3:10
So hopefully asked him to remove our sharp things.
3:15
We made a list of all persons we had armed and we came with him to make demands to them all.
3:22
Nine, made direct demands to such people where possible except when to do so with injured them or others.
3:29
Then continued to continue to make personal inventory and when we were wrong probably admitted.
3:37
11, sought through prayer, mediation, meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood it.
3:45
Praying only for knowledge of his and will for us and the power to carry that out.
3:52
Four, having had a spiritual awakening and the result of these steps, we tried to carry this method of chocolate and practice these examples to all our affairs.
4:02
Many of us exclaimed, what in order I can't go through with it do not be discouraged.
4:09
No one among us have been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles.
4:15
We are not saying the point is that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines.
4:19
The principles we have set down are guides to progress.
4:23
We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.
4:26
Our description of alcoholic, the chapter of that not to the domestic and our personal adventurous.
4:33
Before and after a clear three printed ideas that we are alcoholic and can not manage our lines,
4:40
that probably no human power could have relieved our opposing and that God could and would if we were sorry.
4:51
So as always we will read the daily reflection and then we will go around the room and share for about five minutes.
4:59
In two minutes morning or two minutes left.
5:04
Normally we offer businesses the chance to start the share and then you have a right leg and you have a pre-learning.
5:10
I will just go around.
5:11
I appreciate it.
5:14
Tim, you have it there.
5:15
It's amazing, but this is extremely important.
5:19
We are going to ask our illustrious guests to read your course.
5:23
Thank you.
5:24
Thomas alcoholic.
5:27
Freedom from fear, September 17th.
5:30
When with God's help we calmly accept our lot.
5:34
When we find where we live at peace with ourselves and show others who still suffered the same fears that they could get over them too.
5:45
We found that freedom from fear was more important than freedom from want.
5:50
That's from the 12 steps and 12 traditions, page 1222.
5:55
And material values, values rule my life for many years during my active alcoholism.
6:05
I believe that all of my possessions would make me happy.
6:09
I still felt bankrupt after I've taken them.
6:13
When I first came into AA I found out about a new way of living.
6:18
As a result of learning to trust others I began to believe in a power greater than myself.
6:25
Having faith freed me from the bondage of self as material gains were replaced by gifts of the spirit my life became manageable.
6:35
I then chose to share my experience with other alcoholics.
6:40
Thank you, Thomas.
6:44
Would anybody like to pick this off?
6:47
Or should I pick someone?
6:51
Great.
6:54
I saw the panic.
6:55
You should know that.
6:56
I explained it was quite a long after.
6:59
Great, great.
7:02
I don't explain it in my head.
7:04
I just didn't even go to a reception and just restate it.
7:08
Do you know what I was in there?
7:10
I was in there at June's day.
