Come. (show up)
Come to (awaken-new thoughts/new practices)
Come to Believe (Over time and practicing the steps/principles you will come to believe. It is a process.....And I believe the book talks about honesty and open-mindedness-with these we are well on our way.

God could and would if he were sought (Sought, not necessarily found)

It is the hope and belief that you could be restored-again a process

I like the end of step two in the 12x12-Every AA meeting is an assurance that God will restore us to sanity if we rightly relate ourselves to him. (Sorry, dont have 12x12 with me, but I believe that's close)
Keep Putting one foot in front of the other!!!!
Part of doing step 2 is exactly what you are doing-asking others their experience, strength and hope. Reading BB and 12x12 step 2-you might want to read "Came to believe" a AA book about other peoples's experience with comming to believe.
