There is a part in the directions for that 4th step that really jumped off the page at me...I was pretty overwhelmed as I was working on it. It's on page 68. It's in the Fear inventory...But it mentions any problem we may have.

Some of us once had great self-confidence, but it didn't fully solve the fear problem, or any other. When it made us cocky, it was worse.

Perhaps there is a better way - we think so. For we are now on a different basis; the basis of trusting and relying upon God. We trust infinite God rather than our finite selves. We are in the world to play the role He assigns. Just to the extent that we do as we think He would have us, and humbly rely on Him, does He enable us to match calamity with serenity.
