He said...notice in step two it doesn't say God, or Higher Power...it says power greater than ourselves.
He said, the power greater than ourselves may very well be the people in the fellowship. A group of sober members has more power than I do.
I wrote this awhile ago, and I don't believe this to be true today.
I believe the Power greater than ourselves, is God.
"We found that as soon as we were able to lay aside prejudice and express even a willingness to believe in a Power greater than ourselves, we commenced to get results, even though it was impossible for any of us to fully define or comprehend that Power, which is God."
Define that power, which is God.
