Step-10 encourages us to regularly take personal inventory and when we are wrong about anything to promptly admit it. We have just made direct amends to those we have harmed and are aware that, with God’s help, we need to change how we behave in the future. We previously acted out of our self- centeredness and now we need to act out of our new self which is being renewed in the likeness of our Creator. Jesus gives great teaching on how we ought to treat others and we need to find out what He says, so we can grow in our understanding of the ways of God.

As we journey forward it is wise to take daily inventory and review the things that happen in each day. Some things will please us, while others will cause us concern. Those things that we are doubtful about we should consider talking over with a pastor, friend, or sponsor to ensure we are on the right track. God gave us the Scriptures to be our handbook. If we obey what it says in the handbook, we will avoid the traps of the enemy.

You’re my cave to hide in, my cliff to climb. Be my safe leader, be my true mountain guide. Free me from hidden traps; I want to hide in you. I’ve put my life in your hands. You won’t drop me, you’ll never let me down. (Psalm 31:3-5 MSG)

He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. (2 Corinthians 1:4 NLT)
Prayer: Gracious God, Please help me to stand firm on Your Word and in times of trial to seek Your counsel and the counsel of others who have journeyed on this path before me. Amen
