I will add that I listened to a lot of 'tapes' of people who worked the steps in a very similair way to me - and when I was writing my fourth column on the fourth step I paid extra close attention. I really got a lot from listening to them share their experience - particularly resentment which they could not have had anything to do with (Like you shared BP). Also about Jews who had resentments toward Hitler - and moved past it. Child abuse victims getting free of that pain. It really works. The Power we have tapped can heal it all.

How did these people get free?

Cleaned their side of the street and forgave. Saw those who harmed them in a new light.

When I looked at the wrongs I had done on paper in that fourth column - the wrongs of others lost their power over me. At step 8 - I put down on 3x5 cards exactly the harm I had caused that person.

Then I prayed over each one, some red lights have turned to green and I have made ammends - some are still red, I still pray to be shown when the time is right to approach these people. But there isn't anyone I haven't approached because I still harbor ill will, I believe to do so would probably cause more harm...all in God's time.

Thanks for sharing Tanyapmc - I believe you will be healed of this.
