June 5 ENTIRELY READY? This is the Step that separates the men from the boys.. . . the difference between the boys and the men is the difference between striving for a self- determined objective and for the perfect objective which is of God. . . . It is suggested that we ought to become entirely willing to aim toward perfection. . . . The moment we say, No, never! our minds close against the grace of God. . . . This is the exact point at which we abandon limited objectives, and move toward Gods will for us. — TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, pp. 63, 68, 69 Am I entirely ready to have God remove these defects of character? Do I know at long last that I cannot save myself? I have come to believe that I cannot. If I am unable, if my best intentions go wrong, if my desires are selfishly motivated and if my knowledge and will are limited — then I am ready to embrace Gods will for my life.
