We Agnostics Page 52 from start of 2nd paragraph: ‘We had to ask ourselves why we shouldn’t apply to our human problems…’ ending second line top of page 53: ‘…we began to feel like those who had insisted the Wrights would never fly.’ Look up: bedevilment, reliance, self-sufficiency 1. Rewrite paragraph 2 on page 52. Own it and Replace each ‘we’ with your name or “I”. 1a. Read it to your buddy. 1b. Write on whatever from this paragraph is still a problem in your life. [examples: problems with relationships, you’re an under-earner, in an abusive job, in a high-stress job which is taking over your life. Do you have a feeling of uselessness? Are you full of fear or can’t seem to be of real help to other people or your family?]. 2. Who do you know in your intimate recovery group that solves problems with simple reliance upon God? Have a conversation with this person and ask what they do to solve problems with God’s help. Ask what process they use and how did they do it? (Quiet time, inventory and accountability would be Stephanie’s answer to this question) 3. Ask this person and then yourself: What would simple reliance upon a God of your understanding look like? How would it change your life? 4a. Are you willing at the end of the day or during the day to do a 10th step on how you were relying on your Higher Power? 4b. Are you willing to let go of your ideas of what it looks like to run your life? Are you willing to apply the “God idea” (simple reliance on God) in place of your own ideas? 5. Write about God’s idea of a simple reliance upon the Spirit of the Universe instead of your own idea? 6a. Do you have self-sufficiency? 6b. If so, in what area(s) do you have it and how is self-sufficiency working in that area? 7c. Are you willing to put God-sufficiency into those areas of your life? 8. What accomplishments in your life have you done against the odds that you can attribute to a childlike faith?
