BEING WILLING IS ONE SUCH LITTLE THING -
"The whole em-
phasis of Step Seven
is on humility. Its really
saying to us that we now
ought to be willing to try hu-
mility in seeking the re-
moval of our other
shortcomings ... ."
(12 & 12, p. 76)
THEN YOU GOTTA ASK FOR HELP -
"Humbly ask-
ing for the remov-
al of our shortcom-
ings means we are giv-
ing complete license to
that loving Power to work
in our lives, believing that
God's [or your H.P.'s] wis-
dom far exceeds our
own." "We ask for help
because we cannot
do it alone." (It
Works How &
Why, p. 49)
"Do little things
now; so big things
shall come to thee
by and by asking
to be done."
- Persian Proverb
*HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself, like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
