. . . . AND FORGIVE
Under very trying conditions I have had, again and again,
to forgive others–also myself.
AS BILL SEE IT p. 268
Forgiveness of self and forgiveness of others are just two
currents in the same river, both hindered or shut off
completely by the dam of resentment. Once that dam is lifted,
both currents can flow. The Steps of A.A. allow me to see how
resentment has built up and subsequently blocked off this
flow in my life. The Steps provide a way by which my
resentments may – by the grace of God as I understand Him –
be lifted. It is as a result of this solution that I can find
the necessary grace which enables me to forgive myself and
others.
