Bible reading:Genesis 3:6-13
We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
Many of us have spent our life in a state of hiding, ashamed of who we are inside. We may hide by living a double life, by using drugs or giving in to other addictions to make us feel like someone else, or by self-righteously setting ourselves above others. Step 4 involves uncovering the things we have been hiding, even from ourselves.
After Adam and Eve disobeyed God, "they suddenly felt shame at their nakedness. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves....Then the Lord God called to the man, 'Where are you?' He replied, 'I heard you walking in the garden, so I hid. I was afraid because I was naked'" ( Genesis 3:7-10). Human beings have been covering up and hiding ever since!.
