When we can bring ourselves to this state, our recovery is well underway...humility is teachability and an open mind to the truth.
How do you embrace humility on your journey to sobriety? In this episode of 'Keep It Simple - Daily Reading', Aron C. dives deep into the heart of Steps 6 & 7 of Alcoholics Anonymous. With a focus on humility and seeking guidance, Aron begins with a reading from the AA guide, shedding light on the sixth step—being entirely ready to have a higher power remove our character defects—and the seventh step—humbly asking for those shortcomings to be taken away.
This isn't about groveling or becoming a doormat; it's about recognizing our place in the universe and the necessity of a power greater than ourselves in overcoming addiction. Aron shares his personal experience, revealing how he discovered his character defects during Step 5 and how acknowledging a higher power helped him tackle his biggest challenges, including his struggles with drinking and drugs.
He emphasizes that if a higher power can help with the most significant issues, it can also assist with everyday problems, provided we approach each day with an open mind and a humble heart. This episode is a poignant reminder that recovery is an ongoing journey, where humility and teachability are crucial. By sharing his insights and encouraging listeners to reflect on their own experiences, Aron creates a supportive space for anyone on the path to sobriety.
Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that underscores the transformative power of humility in recovery.
