Ask your spiritual Guidance (whatever that is for you): What is the truth about the thoughts/false beliefs you may have uncovered in Step Three?
Ask: What is the loving behavior toward your Inner Child in this situation? What is in your highest good? What is kind to yourself?
Open and allow the answers to come through you in words, pictures, feelings, dreams, in talking with another, or in reading a book. The answers may not come immediately, but if you have a sincere desire to learn, they will come.
Who defines your worth? Do you give others the authority to decide if you are worthy or unworthy, okay or not okay, adequate or inadequate, lovable or unlovable? Does others' approval or disapproval define your worth and lovability? Today, give the authority only to your spiritual Guidance to define your worth, goodness and lovability.
