Can He now take them all – every one? If we still cling to something we will not let go, we ask God to help us be willing. ‘When ready, we say something like this: “My Creator, I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single defect of character which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my fellows. Grant me strength, as I go out from here, to do your bidding. Amen.” We have then completed Step Seven.’ Q1. In the second paragraph wherever the word ‘you’ appears write above it ‘God’. Q2. Write this down: TIME: Things I Must Experience. [And remember: it is God’s timing not ours]. Q2a). Look up: usefulness. b) What does it look like to be useful to God, to yourself, to your family, to others such as your community, work, church, town, country, the larger context? Write on this. Amen means: so be it; I stand on this; this is what I want. God I am making a pact with You. It is a very powerful word. You are going into agreement with what you have just said. Shame and Guilt. Stephanie: Shame kept me stuck. Definition that I use for shame is: God you made a mistake in making me. Guilt is: I am not a mistake God, I made a mistake. I don’t have shame today as I have a loving God who loved me in the womb and wants me whether or not my parents do. So shame is denying God wanted me to be created. I do know that God wants me to admit when I make a mistake, but not to believe I am a mistake. I am never a mistake in God’s eyes. I am very, very precious.
