I was talking to some people and it came to me. We as a Nation need to read the 12 steps to set us free from our government addiction. This addiction that we have as a Nation is. Let the Government do it. Our drug is the Government. The dealers are the leaders in the Government. They say trust me, believe in me, look to me to give you hope, and I’m the only one that can change your life.
We need to read the 12 steps and know that we put our faith, hope and belief in God. We put the power of our day to day walk in God’s hand and ourselves. Stop looking to the leaders of a government that knows, if we start to take care of ourselves then the government only becomes a small part of the fabric of America. Then the people that call themselves Americans become the main part of this great Nation. We can work together to help each other though the 12 step program, it starts with admitting we have a problem and it is called the Government.
The 12 Steps
Step 1 - We admitted we were powerless over our addiction - that our lives had become unmanageable
Step 2 - Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity
Step 3 - Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood God
Step 4 - Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves
Step 5 - Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs
Step 6 - Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character
Step 7 - Humbly asked God to remove our shortcomings
Step 8 - Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all
Step 9 - Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others
Step 10 - Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it
Step 11 - Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood God, praying only for knowledge of God's will for us and the power to carry that out
Step 12 - Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other addicts, and to practice these principles in all our affairs
