Am I Ready For Step 2?

The main them of step 1 is admitting powerlessness and our need for help.  We also surrender to becoming willing to abstain.  It's that simple.

So ask yourself two questions:

1. Am I powerless over my addiction?
2. Am I willing to abstain?

If you can answer yes to both of these questions then move on.  Don't give the adversary time to whisper in your ear such lies as:

• You didn't do it well enough
• You'll never be able to abstain

Satan would have us believe these whispering's...  but truly, there is no 'perfect' way to do the steps. You learn what you can, commit to being better and move on.  

Simple.
