38 | Recovery Step 9: Become an Action Hero! Righting the Wrongs of Our Destructive Sexual Behavior

Last week we asked the question: Have you ever hurt someone and come to not only realize that you hurt them but understood exactly how you hurt them?

 

This week we want to ask: Have you felt any fear or intimidation when making the choice to go back and right that wrong?

 

We have a special guest today who is going to share with us his experience with Step 9 of the Sex Addicts Anonymous Recovery Program.

 

So go ahead and pop in your ear bud and join us! It is time to take action toward those we have harmed through our behavioral choices by making amends.

 

We pray this blesses you,

 

Johnny and Emily

The Promises (From Sex Addicts Anonymous) (Discussed in Episode 27 - Step 2)

If we are painstaking about this phase of our development, we will be amazed before we are halfway through. We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness. We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it. We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace. No matter how far down the scale we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others. That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear. We will lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in our fellows. Self-seeking will slip away. Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change. Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us. We will intuitively know how to handle situations, which used to baffle us. We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves. 

Are these extravagant promises? We think not! They are being fulfilled among us sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. They will always materialize if we work for them.
