After becoming ready to let go of my defects, I am invited to turn to God in humility and ask him to remove what still keeps me from real life. This step is not about becoming more polished or more ideal. It is about being made new, awakened, and brought back into reality, because the old way of living is a kind of sleep that slowly drains life and meaning out of me. I cannot do this step without relationship. To ask God in humility means that I begin to know him well enough to trust that he wants to heal me, not shame me, and that what he offers is not mere improvement but a new kind of life. For me, that is the heart of Step Seven: not self-perfection, but rebirth. I ask God to remove what blocks life in me, so that I can become more real, more alive, and more able to live with purpose and love. #lent #12steps #step7 📝 29836c71…
