STEP TEN RECOVERY: We continued to take personal inventory, and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.
1 John 1:5-10
Notice that the concepts and work of the last six steps (4,5,6,7,8,9) are actually rolled into Step Ten: Inventory (I), confession (C), recognize (R) defects, faults, and sins, and making amends (A). (ICRA)
As this continual inventory is important for spiritual fitness, where in my daily routine can I set aside time to make self-assessment part of everyday?
Do I have any resistance to evaluating my defects daily? What are my objections? What do I fear?
An example of a simple, daily, personal inventory: a. Where have I been selfish, dishonest, fearful, inconsiderate, or proud? b. What have I done right today? c. What do I need God’s help with tomorrow? d. What am I grateful for today?
