The fifth step saved my completely life. It took years and years, but working the steps was a lifesaver for my family as well. I had to break free of all these things that were bothering me, that I kept with me as a heavy load my entire life. It's a purification process, a way to clear the sinful nature internally and move towards a better relationship with God. Brian, I love all of you. First step, huh? This is my second time around doing my first step again. It wasn't easy, but I actually feel good. I actually feel real good.
