By this time you are well on your way to recovery, and that is something to be proud of. First, you stepped out of denial and into God's grace. Then, you continued your growth and completed the spiritual inventory, which took a lot of effort and courage.
After writing an inventory, we must deal with what we wrote. The first way to do that is to CONFESS our sins to God. We learn how we confess our sins to God, and instantly receive forgiveness. Then we need to admit our wrongs to another person. By doing this we gain healing that the Bible promises, we gain freedom, and we gain support. Next, we need to be entirely READY to have God remove our character defects. This lesson helps you to be willing to voluntarily submit to any and all changes God wants to make in your life. The good news is you can have VICTORY over your character defects. The acrostic of VICTORY takes you through the steps necessary to see this change in your life. The lesson on AMENDS helps you offer forgiveness to those who have hurt you and shows you how to make amends with those that you have hurt. Then learn the three types of forgiveness: accepting God's forgiveness, forgiving others, and forgiving yourself. Finally, learn how to receive and model Jesus Christ's freely given gift of grace.
After completing all seven lessons, you have taken a giant step towards getting right with God, yourself, and others. The last steps show you how to grow in Christ while helping others.
