Step 10 of the 12-Step program encourages us to stay on track in our recovery with the following words: “We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.” The working of this in our lives means we schedule time on a regular basis to monitor our present thought patterns, actions, and communication with others. Where we recognize some of our old behaviour or thought patterns creeping in, we promptly admit it and with God’s help seek to put things right.

Therefore, he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. (Hebrews 7:25; 2 Corinthians 9:8 NIV)


We need to be honest with God, with ourselves, and with others, and try not to rationalize our behaviour when we do wrong. Taking personal inventory and promptly dealing with our wrongs will enable us to keep on the path of recovery. If we ask God for help in any area we are battling, He promises to help us.
Prayer: Loving God, When I examine my ways and admit the wrongs I have done, please help me to come humbly before You and seek Your forgiveness. My desire is to follow You in all my ways. Please help me! Amen
