Step Nine. Direct amends.
Whew! What if someone will get hurt from opening an old wound? In this case, I can do what the Step suggests and not make the amends directly. Perhaps, I can simply change my behavior and stop hurting the person. I might be able to make restitution anonymously. Sometimes amends just aren't possible.
What if I'm not sure? Pray! Pray for guidance. If I've truly turned my will and my life over to God's care, He will provide opportunities for me to do His will.
