| Los 12 Pasos | From Beer to the Bible in Español | 22 Jan 2024 | 00:52:56 | |
William Griffith Wilson, también conocido como Bill Wilson o Bill W., dejó de beber el 10 de diciembre de 1934, fue el fundador de la asociación Alcohólicos Anónimos junto con el Dr. Robert Holbrook Smith, mejor conocido como el Dr. Bob; quien inició su sobriedad el 10 de junio de 1935 y con ello la creación de una comunidad de personas que, en grupos, se recuperan de su problema común. Siguiendo 12 sencillos pasos: 1er. Paso: Aceptar una derrota total ante nuestro problema, la paradoja más grande de la vida, perder para ganar; morir para vivir. 2do. Paso: Sano juicio, no importa si somos ateos o agnósticos. Si perdimos o nunca hemos tenido Fe, es necesario creer en un Poder Superior a nosotros mismos. Sólos no hemos podido. 4to. Paso: Sin miedo y con honestidad hacemos un inventario moral de toda la vida, respondiendo a unas preguntas en el aspecto emocional, social, material y sexual. 5to. Paso: Ante Dios y ante otro Ser Humano (Padrino, madrina, pastor, sacerdote, psicólogo, amigo de confianza etc) confesamos nuestras faltas osea el inventario del cuarto paso. 6to. Paso: Detectamos exhaustivamente la naturaleza exacta de nuestros defectos. 7mo. Paso: Humildemente pedimos a Dios nos arranque el o los defectos que nos han hecho desgraciados. 8vo. Paso: Se sugiere hacer una lista de aquellas personas que nos ofendieron (somos víctimas), pero aún más una lista de las personas a las cuales hicimos daño (somos victimarios). 9no. Paso: Se hace la reparación de daños directa e indirectamente. Siempre cuidando no dañar a los demás, a costa de nuestra recuperación. Muchas veces la mejor reparación de daños es la que no se hace. Arrepentimiento total. No volver a hacerlo. 10mo. Paso: Seguimos haciendo un inventario instantáneo, al término del día y mínimo dos veces al año. Tratando de realizar reparaciones inmediatas. Aceptamos, admitimos y corregimos. 11vo. Paso: Constantemente buscamos ese contacto consciente con Dios, por medio de la oración y meditación. A nuestras posibilidades y capacidades. El que canta, ora doble vez y el que canta y baila ora triple vez. 12vo. Paso: Después de practicar diario estos pasos se cumplen las doce promesas de AA. La alegría de vivir, la atracción hacia los demás y la transmisión del mensaje. Ayudando a otros es como permanecemos sobrios. Dándonos cuenta que este maravilloso programa también puede ayudarnos, si así lo queremos; en todos los asuntos de nuestra vida. 🔹 Connect with Us: Visit our website: https://www.frombeertothebible.com/ 🔹 Subscribe & Share: Join Ervin Lee and Sarah Oliveira-McDonald each week on From Beer to the Bible as they open up about their personal battles with addiction and share their journey of recovery.
