12 Steps | Step 3 - Step 4 - Step 5

More Members Share Their Ideas On The Twelve Steps 

 

Of the 12 Steps of NA, Step 3 involves another one of the most difficult things a human can do: Allowing our lives and will to be taken out of our hands. The exact step states: We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.

      Let's take a closer look at what this means. After acknowledging the problem, and accepting that we need help from a higher power, we now have to give up control to this higher power. And that's not the easiest thing for a person to do. Control is one thing that we have a lot of problems with when we don't have it. And willingly giving it up is something very few of us would normally consider. But erasing addiction comes with its own set of rules, and these rules are the only way out.

      Now how would someone go about giving their will up? They first need to understand that God isn't human, so we shouldn't have to worry about our typical distrustfulness with other humans. God is pure, and his guidance will lead you down the right path. Think of yourself as pencil. You have the ability to draw beautiful pictures, all you need is someone to pick you up and guide your movements. This is what God can and will do for you.

Step 4 states: We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. This step is a where we start looking beyond the addiction, and seeing the negativity in ourselves that allowed us to get to this point.

     Where do we start with this though? In truth, it is just as hard as admitting our problems in the first place. There may be things in us that we have buried deep down, and as hard as it may be to bring them to light, we have to. We have to hold ourselves up to a magnifying glass, and find out everything about us. We have to know who we are before we move on. Every mistake has to be understood, and as painful as it may be, we must dissect ourselves, and comprehend our wrong doings.

 This goes hand in hand with Step 5, which states: We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. This is where we take all the things we found in our moral inventory, and we admit them to God, and to someone close to us. The purpose of this is to bring all our sins and mistakes into the open, so they become real. By making the sins of our past real, it prepares us to be able to face them, and eventually move on.

NA - How it Works


If you want what we have to offer, and are willing to make the effort to get it, then you are ready to take certain steps. These are the principles that made our recovery possible.

  1. We admitted that we were powerless over our addiction, that our lives had become unmanageable.
  2. We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
  3. We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
  4. We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

AA - How It Works

Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path. Those who do not recover are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this simple program, usually men and women who are constitutionally incapable of being honest with themselves. There are such unfortunates. They are not at fault; they seem to have been born that way. They are naturally incapable of grasping and developing a manner of living which demands rigorous honesty. Their chances are less than average.
