Principle One states: "Realize I'm not God; I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and that my life is unmanageable." As we begin working this principle, we need to remember 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear."
Because of Christs unconditional love, power, grace, and complete forgiveness, we don't have to let our past failures or future fears stop us from completing Principle One. Remember that we've all stumbled over a hurt, hang up, or habit. But the race isn't over yet. God isn't nearly as interested in how we start the race as he is in how we finish it
