Yeah, it's kind of tricky for those of us who don't worship a God. I have tried several ways to go about this. One is substitute Reality or Greater Truth for God. It means that you are turning to the greater truth of life that isn't apparent when in the throes of addiction. When you are consciously connecting to the bigger picture of what is real, you will change, or be rid of character defects, because you begin to change from a self-centered world that is all about me to seeing the interconnectedness of it all. So asking God to remove defects is like having realizations of the way the totality of life is beyond the world in my head, and see the ego for what it is, and when I do the defects will fall away. This is rambling, but hope it gives you some things to think about and maybe discuss. Best to you.
