Five ‘come / came to believe’ quotations:
“An illness of this sort—and we have come to believe it an illness” (Page 18)
“But we saw that it really worked in others, and we had come to believe in the hopelessness and futility of life as we had been living it.” (Page 25)
“They flatly declare that since they have come to believe in a Power greater than themselves, to take a certain attitude toward that Power, and to do certain simple things, there has been a revolutionary change in their way of living and thinking.” (Page 50)
“Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.” (Page 59)
“We have come to believe He would like us to keep our heads in the clouds with Him, but that our feet ought to be firmly planted on earth.” (Page 130)
Once I realise:
- I have a problem
- Others have solved the problem
- They have done this through God
- I can do this through God
- There is a higher realm where I must live
- There is a lower realm where I must act
I have the right philosophy, and I can take the requisite course of action.
