Eighth Step: Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and were willing to make amends to them all. "We attempt to sweep away the debris which has accumulated out of our effort to live on self-will and run the show ourselves. If we haven t the will to do this, we ask until it comes." (p. 76 BB) Eighth Step Prayer ~ "God, Please remove my Fears and show me your truth. Show me all the harms I have caused with my behavior and help me be willing to make amends to one and all. Help me to be willing to go to any lengths for victory over alcohol."(bb 76:3) The promise associated with step eight: If that degree of humility could enable us to find the grace by which such a deadly obsession could be banished, then there must be hope of the same result respecting any other problem we could possibly have.(12&12 76) There but for the grace of God Corrections needs you!
