the fifth step was more than a confession,I read my 4th step to my sponsor,everythingt,all 3 notebooks of stuff,with holding nothing.When I was done,he asked if if I had held back anything.I said no,which was true.He sent me home to sit quitely and get my big book,which he told me to leave at home as the big book says,and spend time with God,and look back over everything I had done,all the previous steps,and make sure I did not leave anything out.
He reminded me I was building a archway thru which I would pass to freedom.
Was my work solid so far?
Yes
The hour of Grace we call it,a great hour in my life.I am glad I did not miss it.
A lot of folks miss the "hour"
so they say
I went on to step 6 and then to step 7 in the same day
when I got up from my knees after the 7th step prayer,I passed thru the archway a free man with all the tools to stay free
